ARCHIK

1950s architecture, this 190 m² modernist house, labeled Remarkable Contemporary Architecture, is located on a 609 m² wooded plot in the musicians' district of Talence.     Designed by the architect Yves Salier in 1954, the original house has been perfectly preserved and partly enlarged with an extension substantially integrated into the whole in 2001. Separated from the street by a reception garden, the main volume of the house on two levels is composed of a rubble stone base topped with white rendering with transom glazing to reinforce the horizontality and flat colors in orange or green which enliven the Corbusian facade. A second volume on one level extends the house to the east, articulated around a glazed entrance. The kitchen is in a row, separated from the living space by a joinery element acting as a serving hatch, and completed by an original cast stainless steel sink top in perfect condition. The living room, with its black and white mosaic strip floor, extends onto a terrace beyond the floor-to-ceiling wooden bay windows, creating a unity between the interior and exterior. The walls clad in rubble or varnished wooden slats, and the original functional fireplace with storage are all vestiges of the 20th century that add to the charm of the house. Central to the room, the semi-open staircase with its minimalist black metal railing leads upstairs where a bright landing displays integrated storage in the same colors as the whole and distributes three bedrooms on the garden side, which share a bathroom. Facing the beautiful cedar tree in the middle of the garden, the perfectly integrated extension extends the L-shaped plan around the garden, and houses two bedrooms, a living room, a shower room and a laundry room. A brutalist outbuilding made of shuttered concrete faces the house with a sculptural and linear composition. Converted into an office, this pleasant space, with its glass corner opening onto a water lily pond, is also carefully thought out, with the added bonus of a set of wooden shelves complementing the raw concrete and the floor covered in slate tiles. A large garage, a carport and an outdoor kitchen complete this iconic ensemble.     A house where purist and brutalist language coexist.

This small , early 20th - century building, constructed of Bordeaux stone, houses a duplex apartment on the 2nd and 3rd floors , measuring 80,04 sq m (Carrez law) and approximately 93 sq m of floor space, complete with a rooftop terrace. The property is located near Place Gambetta, in the heart of Bordeaux.     Renovated in 2021, the apartment is accessed from the first floor of the building via a beautiful wooden staircase with black ironwork, running alongside a stone wall. The living room, with its neutral tones, is then revealed: engineered oak parquet flooring and touches of light stone, highlighted by black steel beams, open up and structure the space. From the intimate sitting area, complete with a custom-built bookcase, the light streaming through three east-facing windows draws the eye towards the dining area and the semi-open kitchen, visible through a workshop-style glass partition with black accents. Fully equipped, the kitchen, finished in white and gray with a mineral countertop, combines separation and conviviality. On the bedroom side, the first bedroom features a study area and a full-height custom-made dressing room. A shower room completes this level. Access to the top floor is via a contemporary, airy staircase, illuminated by a large skylight. Here, a spacious and inviting bedroom is nestled beneath the sloping ceiling. Featuring its own bathroom, it opens, through French doors, onto a west-facing terrace, pleasantly sheltered from the wind and offering unobstructed views of the city ideal for admiring sunsets. An attic completes this move-in ready property.     A haven of peace in the heart of the city, with its terrace overlooking the rooftops.

Inside, a functional layout reveals a fully equipped kitchen on the first level with an adjoining pantry separated from the living area by a bar. This room, which faces both south and east, opens onto nature with large bay windows that welcome the rising sun, highlighting the sand-colored bespoke joinery that reflect the tones of the dunes. The vast terrace surrounded by a wooden railing allows for several layouts to fully enjoy the omnipresent nature. Upstairs, the oak flooring remains the common thread and leads to a master bedroom and two bedrooms that share a bathroom, all enhanced by built-in storage and visual openings towards the tops of the pine trees.  A private cellar, ideal for beach gear, and two secure parking spaces complete this property.       A bright and peaceful place, where nature is ever-present, ready to welcome its new inhabitants.

The intimate entrance with star-shaped cement tiles opens onto a library area that connects the living spaces, offering east/west light. On the west side, stands the fully equipped kitchen, dressed in dark colors, with its bench seating for family meals and a large window that frames the vegetation. On the east side, a vast living space opens onto the wooded garden thanks to a fully glazed, full-height facade. A wooden terrace extends the space outside at the foot of a magnificent catalpa tree with sparse foliage, revealing a mesh of shadows and light conducive to daydreaming. From the entrance, the original wooden staircase leads upstairs, where a landing leads to two bedrooms with custom-designed furnishings and a garden bedroom with its own office space. All three share a bathroom with a separate shower. Completing this level is a master bedroom swathed in midnight blue, accessed from a fitted dressing room before opening onto the treetops through a band window that runs along the facade. Three sheds, a garage converted into a laundry room and two parking spaces with a charging station complete this family property.     A family living space, largely open to the outside world.
