Villa Noailles

We went to Hyeres to la Villa Noailles.
It was built in the 20's by the architect Mallet Stevens for a rich couple.
It is now a museum and holds design exhibits.
It offers a wonderful view of Hyeres and the sea.

A chair created for the house

Can you imagine: a wall painted by Picasso!

The swimming pool was made into an exhibit room. They built a ground made of glass. It scared Rémi so much!

Is this part of the Bau Haus movement?

Wahou, we're talking art! No it's not the Bauhaus movement, it's more modern art.
