Village des Sables

Culture · by Maurice Abelanet, Jean Dujol, Jacques Bourbon, Henri Lacalm · 1978

village des Sables, Torreilles, France

The historic village of Torreilles, primarily known for its winemaking, is situated inland, away from the coast. Following the initiatives of the Racine mission, development along the coastline commenced, with plans for a beach resort that included a village, a marina, a central square, and shops. However, this project remained unfinished. Ultimately, only residential units were constructed, resulting in the Village des Sables, which comprises 640 pavilions designed by the ADBL agency for developer Guy Merlin on a 33-hectare site.
