La Villa Noailles

I wanted to share with you some photos of the Villa Noailles we visited during the Easter holidays for the International Festival of Fashion and Photography (click here to see more on this subject).
Built in the early 1920's by French architect Robert Mallet-Stevens for Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles, the villa was one of the very first modernist style buildings constructed in France. The couple Charles and Marie-Laure were both from prestigious families and became well known art collectors and enthusiasts of modernism.
The villa was their holiday home located on top of a hill overlooking the bay, offering stunning views of the mediterranean sea.
