Sur les hauteurs de Hyères, le temps semble s’être arrêté.
Cette maison de villégiature historique renaît sous le regard et la main de maître d’@edgarjayet. Nichée dans un véritable jardin d’Éden suspendu face aux îles d’Or, elle s’inspire de la riche histoire littéraire et artistique de la région. Un bijou d’architecture et de poésie. ✨

High above Hyères, time seems to stand still.
This historic holiday home comes back to life through the masterful eye of @edgarjayet. Nestled in a lush Eden suspended over the Îles d’Or, the property takes inspiration from the region’s rich literary and artistic heritage. A true jewel of architecture and poetry. ✨ taken in Hyères by @swacks

Just returned from a realm where time loses all meaning... the Mentawai archipelago. 🌴✨

Lost in the currents off Sumatra, these islands hold secrets whispered only by the ocean. Endless stretches of untouched shore, tide lines carved by light, and a raw, untamed wild that feels like a forgotten memory. Returning from this sanctuary feels less like leaving a place, and more like waking from an ancient dream.

There is something truly magical about places like this, where the ocean speaks and the wild remains completely untouched.

A glimpse into our shoot at @maisonsdominos

In the heart of Marseille, a sanctuary where time stands still and light whispers through soft textures.

Capturing the effortless elegance and warm soul of this house. A true celebration of the Southern way of life.
