ONE DAY IN WINTER AT VILLA NOAILLES
Robert Mallet-Stevens has been commissioned in 1923 to build the Villa Noailles located in Hyères. In order to please Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles –the owners–, the young architect had to include the vestiges of the Saint-Bernard monastery within the house. The project took 8 years to achieve (from 1924 to 1932). It features five bedrooms, a living room, and a dining room.
