In one of the most fascinating corners of the French Riviera, the French architecture studio Vialla Pouliquen architectes has designed a modern villa that transcends the concept of a simple residence: it is a tribute to the harmonious integration between contemporary design and the timeless beauty of stone. Perched on a rocky slope and surrounded by lush vegetation and the Mediterranean Sea, this villa presents a refined style. Its architecture, which cleverly exploits the morphology of the ground, stands out for its ability to integrate seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. The hillsides fostered the creation of a dynamic and fascinating structure that reflects the unique character of the place. The streamlined lines of this modern architecture are enhanced by Geopietra^® manufactured stone, which creates a fascinating contrast and evokes tradition and authenticity. This material not only adds a touch of harmony, but also exudes a deep sense of belonging to its surroundings. The building adapts to the slope of the hill on which it stands and has several floors highlighted by the retaining walls clad with a custom model from Geopietra^® collection, which also characterises the garden terraces, pillars and some façade walls. The stone shades recall the suggestive colours of the surrounding landscape, fostering a visual connection with the natural context.

Thanks to a horizontal installation, the wall texture is extremely solid and homogeneous, with a perfect interplay of stones of different sizes and shapes. This installation method provides a refined aesthetic, transforming each stone cladding into a unique composition. To complete the finishing of the walls, GeoCover wall caps were used in the Spacco model – slabs in manufactured stone, reinforced with fibreglass, which are named after the typical process used to sculpt edges. The warm shades of brown chosen for the wall caps integrate perfectly with the context that envelops the villa, enhancing both elegance of the structure and natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. Geopietra^® infuses the villa with a sense of authenticity and connection to nature. Every detail, from the horizontal installation to the choice of stone shades, has been carefully curated to celebrate the perfect balance between modern architecture and landscape. Living here is like immersing yourself in an unparalleled living experience, where every corner tells a story of elegance and harmony.
