Made of fieldstone, the building overlooks the forests and river that make up the landscape of Féline-sur- Rimandoule. Transforming a modest farmhouse into a rural residence, the vibrant exposed-stone walls contrast with the strict lines of the bush-hammered concrete reinforcements, match the imperfection of the terracotta, and fit in with the rigour of the dressed-stone lintels.
