Marie, 57, contacted me to share her architect's plans with me. She doubts. The architect respected his initial brief: to create a veranda 3 meters from the fence. Nevertheless, he did not take into account his age, lifestyle, habits, climate, etc. The objective of Maison courty: to modernize and enlarge a house transformed in the 1980s, a former coaching inn for Laguiole horses. The strength of this property is to have a view. It was necessary to exploit and turn the house towards this panoramic view. Maison Courty also advised him to anticipate his age and plan for old age, risks of a loss of autonomy for his parents. The "wood stock"/garden shed part on the north side will become an additional room, a bedroom with its toilet and shower room. Or why not a spa with a skylight? The laundry room is integrated into the project. The balcony is shortened, the terrace is exploited, access is via a gentle slope and a staircase. Maison Courty has found a wall decoration to dress the walls with the wallpaper. Each bedroom has its own color green (Farrow and Ball Pavilion Blue No.252 green and Lotus BP 2051). The central bedroom is isolated from the other 2 with a wall hanging from the Maison Lelièvre Paris and the last a taupe with a toile de Jouy. The garden has been planted with charms and stones from Saint-Flour in harmony with the slate tiles. This modernization has been followed in this village and surroundings.
