Les Alpilles, France

Provence, as it is lived

Come home to a house that was waiting for you:
the shutters open on the Alpilles, the week planned with you before you left, a chef when you want one, and no one else in the garden. Open every month of the year.

Eight houses, eight love stories.

Our story

We came for one house, and stayed

We spent thirty years designing houses in Geneva. Then one house in Provence designed the rest of our lives: Le Mas de Chabran, too big for two, too beautiful to keep to ourselves. Seven restorations later, we still take on each house as if we were going to live in it: with the craftsmen of the Alpilles, furniture that looks as if it had always been there, and now and then an artist for a piece as big as the room.

The first house, in the light that made us stay.

Experiences

The Alpilles the guides don’t take you to, from the house or an hour from it.

01 / 04

Out into the Alpilles

Riding at dawn, the ridge paths above Paradou, the Wednesday market at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. We arrange the day and the guide, and we know which roads are worth the detour.

02 / 04

What the market gives

Quentin goes to the market at first light and cooks what he finds in the house that evening. Classes, the wines of the Alpilles, a table laid wherever you like.

03 / 04

The house to yourselves

A teacher each morning, treatments in the house, and nothing on the calendar you did not put there. Pilates, yoga and breathwork for eight to sixteen.

The sauna in red-stained wood, La Bergerie de Calabrun, Les Baux-de-Provence, Alpilles

04 / 04

In the house

A masseuse who comes to you rather than a clinic, a sauna lit for the end of the day, the pool warm, the shutters closed against the afternoon.

What’s on

Month by month in the Alpilles
