French Chateau
Rooted in the country houses of 17th and 18th century France: symmetrical plans, tall windows, classical proportion and a restrained palette of stone, oak and plaster. Formal, but never cold.

Provencal Farmhouse
The mas of southern France: thick masonry walls, small deep-set windows and low tiled roofs built against the sun and the mistral. Rustic, sun-faded and made for life lived half outdoors.
Tuscan Villa
Born in the Italian countryside: heavy masonry, arched openings, loggias and beamed ceilings under terracotta roofs. Earthy and generous, built to age in place over generations.
Modern Farmhouse
The rural vernacular reworked with clean lines: simple gabled forms, open plans, large windows and honest natural materials. Relaxed, bright and uncluttered.
Swiss Chalet
The Alpine mountain house: broad overhanging roofs, timber construction and compact, insulated rooms gathered around the hearth. Built for snow, warmth and long evenings.
Belgian Wabi-Sabi
A Flemish take on the Japanese idea of beauty in imperfection: pared-back rooms, muted earth tones, raw textures and old materials left to show their age.
