La Voile House

La Voile House reimagines a 1950s dwelling on the cliffs of Cap Ferrat, opening it fully to the Mediterranean light. Foster + Partners transformed the existing structure into a bright, double-height living space with large sliding glass walls that blend interior and landscape. A sculptural pergola with fabric sails and climbing plants filters sun throughout the seasons, creating a dynamic play of shade while naturally cooling the house. The result is a serene, contemporary retreat shaped by views, light, and the rhythm of the coast.
