This old house of La Flotte that was once a munitions depot has a page
in the history of the island. It was the front post at sea, defending
the interests of France against the English who had invaded La
Rochelle... Since then, this barricade has been turned into a row of
cabins, side by side like ramparts looking out on to the beautiful Ré
Island. Completely redesigned, the house rises from its past; a
monochromatic home with gentle shades of white and grey punctuated with
red accents.
Roland and Michele wanted to create a space that contrasted their
surroundings with its own harmonious nuances; yet the atmosphere remains
that of the ocean. The taste of beautiful things, noble materials and
curtains, with subdued, light linens; the rooms all have a different
charm. Small, they are no less comfortable in this holiday home with the
ocean view and multiple nuances...
