A renovated house from the 1920s with a tree-dotted court, nestled in Lyon, in the city's Montchat neighbourhood. The house from the 1920s stands in the calm, discreet neighbourhood around Place Ronde roundabout. As a former artist's studio, it bears witness to the district's past in craftsmanship. It has been renovated in a spirit that combines the plain forms of art deco with modern comfort. The home offers a 150m² floor area. It has a basement, a ground floor and a first floor. Each level is filled with natural light. The design of the facade stands out for its plain geometric forms and protruding sections, which are typical of the art deco aesthetics of the 1920s. The large rectangular windows, set in surrounds in relief, are also inspired by this trend and underline the priority given to natural light in artists' studios. Large cornices and horizontal mouldings underline the structure elegantly, bringing out its strength and sophistication. The main entrance door is framed between glazed panels, a configuration often found in artists' studios to maximise the reach of natural light inside. The choice of modern yet plain windows, set in black metal frames, reinterprets the original features that were typical of artists' studios from the period. Copper drainpipes and architectural articulation that is simple but distinct emphasise a desire to combine discreet ornamentation with practicality. Beyond an entrance gate equipped for security, there is a 100m² tree-dotted terrace edged with a wall of climbing jasmine that offers a sweet fragrance in spring and summer.
