Built in 1969, this post-modernist house and outbuildings covering 1,700 sq ft, designed by Bordeaux architect Patrick Maxwell, stands on a 2,600 sq ft plot in the sought-after family neighborhood of Primrose, near the Barrière Judaique. A reinterpretation of a Bordeaux shop, this house blends perfectly into the surrounding urban fabric and is accessed via a small garden hidden behind a wall, concealed from view from the public space. Renovated in 2021 by HMONP architect Iris Giese, founder of ARCHI PLUS, the house and its outbuildings have been enhanced while respecting the original architecture, its initial minimalism, and its raw character. There are two entrances: one through a door leading to the kitchen and the other through a large glass frame with a view across the entire ground floor. Upon arrival, the mid-century charm reigns supreme, with the homogeneity of the washed gravel concrete floor, white plastered walls, and woodwork characterizing the interior. The long kitchen with a dining area under a ribbon window is completely private and isolated from the rest of the house, while the living rooms occupy the rest of the ground floor. Structured by a central wall, the fully open living room is organized around an open fireplace, as if molded into the white wall. The dining room shares a full-height black-stained wood glass façade with the living room, opening entirely onto a sheltered patio that has been converted into a dining area. Nestled between the kitchen and the dining room, a quarter-turn staircase in solid wood punctuated with decorative alcoves leads to a landing distributing three bedrooms with glass panels and a bathroom decorated with hexagonal mosaics, multiplied infinitely by a set of mirrors. A unique and singular house, enveloped in textures and raw materials with nature omnipresent.   A desire for simplicity, clarity of volume, and a relationship between architecture and living environment.   The uniqueness of the place The views of the greenery from every room The renovation mindful of seventies codes
