In Brittany’s Gulf of Morbihan, Atelier FB renovated a seaside house into a spacious family home. This high-end interior design project combines a reorganisation of the layout, carefully considered materials and close attention to the relationship between indoors and outdoors.
An unused garage was converted into two guest bedrooms. The house now has eight bedrooms, each with its own shower room or bathroom, including a children’s dormitory and a nursery adjoining the principal bedroom. A double reception room and open kitchen with a dining area complete the living spaces.
Volumes, circulation, light and atmosphere were all rethought. Around the existing staircase, a solid-oak screen extends across the ceiling, its curves and fishbone-inspired pattern giving the space a distinctive identity.
The terrace pairs large granite-effect porcelain slabs, echoing Brittany’s stone, with a long concrete bench extending from the dining room. The swimming pool was remodelled to incorporate a retractable cover and a shallow area for young children.
The owners’ trust allowed us to take a comprehensive approach, from garden design to furniture, tableware and glassware. Every detail contributes to the coherence of this family home.
