Provence Pied-ร -Terre Transformed: 24 Square Meters of โRetirement Bliss
Bandol, โคFrance – A โฃdated 24-square-meter apartment in Bandol, Provence, has undergone a stunning โคchange, โขdelivering a modern,โ pleasant, and cleverly designed space for aโ retiring couple. Interior designer Stรฉphanie Le Rouzic, founder of the Mars Avril agency, spearheaded the renovation, turning a poorly configured residence into a functional and โขinvitingโฃ Mediterranean โฃretreat.
The homeowners, a couple from โBouches-du-Rhรดne, โsought to shed the apartment’s outdated seaside โaesthetic and create aโค space optimized forโฃ both daily โliving and entertaining.their vision โฃincluded a โsecluded bedroom, โขfull kitchen amenities โฃ(dishwasher โฃand washing machine), andโค a defined dining area – all within the compact footprint. โค”They wanted to โคhave โfun, because theyโค knew they were going to spend more time there,” recalls โLe Rouzic.
Le Rouzic approached the project as โ”my Tetris project!” beginning โขwith floor repairs and the application of polished concrete over existingโ tile, expertly executed by Adโ Astra.โ Walls โwere painted a โฃcrisp white to create a neutralโข backdrop for a soft, Japandi-inspired atmosphere. The bedroomโ was โฃre-imagined as a cabin-likeโข space, elevated on a small platform to maximize storage โbelow.
The renovation was completed by Renoov and featuredโค custom joinery by โขMarseille-based cabinetmaker Mr. Rozรฉ.
