In the heart of Provence, in Grasse, an exceptional project has come to life. This renovation of a 280 m2 house was orchestrated by architect Victoria Douyere. After working as a freelancer for Caroline Andreoni for two years, where she gained the practical skills necessary for high-end renovations, she decided to launch her own agency in 2020.
Listening to her clients, her goal is to guide them in designing interiors that are both functional and aesthetic, where they will feel comfortable for years to come. Special attention is given to space redistribution, circulation fluidity, custom storage creation, and the selection of noble materials. In 2023, she partnered with Damien Schwed to found Bàti-Bàti Architecture ( "bàti-bàti" meaning "favorite" in Provençal). Based in Marseille, their new agency aims to infuse their projects with a distinctly Mediterranean style.
Authentic Mediterranean Style with Cosentino
This warm style is found within the villa. The kitchen, with its worktop, backsplash, and island in Sensa Taj Mahal, a treated natural stone mixed with Dekton Arga, offers a complete illusion for a harmonious and elegant result.
Dekton Arga, reproducing the iconic texture and soft warmth of the Taj Mahal quartzite, perfectly adorns the bathrooms. Its fine veins meander between oxides and fade to become reddish-gold, adding character and originality to the spaces it adorns. In the second bathroom, a Dekton Trance basin top, with its fluid color and hint of blue, reveals a background of cream and gray hues, creating a unique and refined atmosphere.
Victoria Douyere embodies a decidedly modern approach to architecture and renovation, while preserving the authenticity and charm of Provence. Through her projects, the agency reinvents spaces to offer clients environments that are both functional, aesthetic, and imbued with Mediterranean character.
