A Charming Fisherman House In The Ile De Re by Christian Liaigre

A Charming Fisherman cottage in the isle de , Christian Liegre

Simplicity doesn’t mean sterile, and a fisherman house doesn’t always imply unworldly either. Quite often good design is harder to interpret in simple, authentic ways than in grand, opulent ways. As this charming fisherman house shows, good Interior Design embraces the home instead of disguising it. Christian Liaigre took inspiration from the 18th-century architecture in Île de Ré, an Island of the West Coast of France, to decorate his family country home. The rusticity found in the unspoiled island is interpreted in the design details of the house from the understated facade with its simple main door to the original white painted panels throughout inside the home. The main red doors Liaigre saw in his trip to Nantucket inspired the touches of red dotting around the house. “This is a simple home for a fisherman, and that is reflected in the decoration” Christian Liaigre
