Paris-based architects Septembre converted a 19^th-century farmhouse in Loire Valley, France for a couple and their two children as a getaway from Paris and London, where they own art galleries.

Description by Septembre:

Conversion of an old farmhouse into a summer home. The project consist of keeping as much as possible of the old structure while adapting it to a new use. Discrete interventions on the internal fittings and use of rugged materials with natural appearance allows for a gentle preservation of the initial appearance of the building.
