Looking at Laurence Simoncini’s house, which is located on Ile de Re on the west coast of France, we easily realize that it’s inspired from nature with a combination of light, wood, and stone.
Actually, the environment has a big influence on the design and the interior of the house. Salty marshes and sand dunes are the sources of inspiration.
More specifically, we can see cement walls, concrete floors, and wooden beams. Furthermore, the furniture and the sculptures are from salvaged wood.
Natural materials such as linen and woven complete the interior.
Finally the simplicity and the minimalist style of the space play a major role in creating the sense of a calm and peaceful refuge.
