If you were excited by Le Corbusier’s Marseille duplex last week then take a deep breath. Jean Prouvé and Charlotte Perriand are the dream team behind the heritage-listed Villa Seynave in Saint-Tropez, which is now for sale and likely to garner a lot of attention. The prefab dwelling is built using Prouvé’s ingenious aluminium and concrete ‘alba’ system and won a slew of preservation awards. It’s in pristine condition, including its Perriand-designed furnishings and Serge Mouille lighting. Take a peek inside the French property.
