Villa Canopea

This house stands on a very narrow plot and is built on three storeys that run back into the slope. Its verticality reflects the tall trees and the mountain just behind. The "taupe" hues, both discreet and elegant, camouflage the house in its setting, blending it perfectly into this magnificent environment. Large expanses of glass on the gable and transparent railings further lighten the presence of this fully automated home. The Axe&D structure, with its unique post-and-beam construction system, offers an unparalleled sense of strength and robustness. The use of glulam elements and "taupe" coloured stain add a nice touch of modernity to the project. The terrace is covered in ipe, an exotic timber whose natural qualities and grey tones are perfect for the large deck around the pool. One exceptional, flamboyant species has particular pride of place: iroko, an exotic timber renowned as much for its technical virtues and robustness as for its rich colours and refined appearance. A marvellous timber that decorates the floors of this elegant property and is also used for the doors, right down to the wine cellar.
