Le Château de Marteret
Thu, 28 Feb 2013
A special place, part history, part fantasy, part mystery, part dream made reality. Château de Marteret in Southwest France in the foothills of the Pyrenees in the Gascony region has a singular charm. The current owners have commissioned over 20 artists to help bring their vision to life. The estate is about creative power and inspiration, nurturing life and delving into its meaning and mysteries. It's philosophy meets interior design. Perhaps that is a little glib but whatever Château de Marteret would profess to be it certainly is beautiful ... and unusual.

Just stunning. Human-scale & livable, yet transporting.
Quirky as. So good. Love all the wood furnishings and LOVE LOVE LOVE the grey tiled bathroom.
