Villa La Carrière

Villa La Carrière is a remarkable 1938–1939 modernist residence in Juan-les-Pins, designed by singer and artist Charles Trenet, who conceived the project himself in a distinctive “paquebot” or ocean-liner style blending streamlined Art Deco lines with functionalist volumes. Organized over four levels and crowned by a rooftop belvedere terrace, the villa features sweeping horizontal façades, deck-like terraces, and large panoramic openings that reinforce its nautical character. Set within a wooded hillside plot, it also includes a long tiled swimming pool and several landscaped outdoor spaces that frame views of the surrounding landscape. Its sculptural geometry, maritime references, and thoughtful integration into its natural setting make it an exceptional example of Riviera modernism.
