Villa Méditerranée
Villa Méditerranée is a timeless jewel situated on the scenic shores of Cap d’Antibes on the French Riviera. Originally designed in 1949 by American architect Barry Dierks, renowned for his connections with the aristocracy and jet-set of his time, this waterfront property has long been an iconic setting for memorable events, hosting illustrious guests such as the Kennedys and Pablo Picasso.
Localisation: Cap d’Antibes – France
Projet Type: Renovation of a seafront villa
Area: 1300 sqm
Land: 9500 sqm
The estate comprises a main villa, a guest villa, several technical buildings, and staff quarters. The villa has undergone a comprehensive renovation by the agency, reimagining Dierks’ distinctive style while addressing the needs of the current owners.
Every detail has been meticulously crafted to harmonize the architecture with the surrounding landscape.
Features like green roofs, rock formations, and water elements have been strategically incorporated to conceal roofs and structures, complemented by underground passages to preserve the natural beauty of the site and adhere to the region’s stringent coastal and urban regulations.
Inside, the villa exudes refined elegance, with a minimalist design that beautifully showcases an extensive contemporary art collection. The garden is thoughtfully landscaped with native and tropical plants to ensure privacy, while the pool—a remarkable centerpiece—integrates seamlessly with the rugged environment, creating a natural oasis with its cascading waterfalls and rock formations.
