Inspiring Interiors Ideas 2015: Ile de Re

Friday takes us to a new house on Ile de Re, an island off the west coast of France, near La Rochelle. Every room opens onto a central courtyard ensuring plenty of natural light. Rustic and simple. Come and see. <a href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=fr%7Cen&u=http://www.cotemaison.fr/maison-reve/maison-famille/diaporama/maison-neuve-a-l-ancienne-sur-l-ile-de-re_1254.html%3Fp%3D2&prev=/translate_s%3Fhl%3Den%26q%3DA%2Bc%25C3%25B4t%25C3%25A9%2Bde%2BSaint-Paul-de-Vence,%2Bla%2Bd%25C3%25A9coratrice%2BAnne%2Bd%2527Hauterives%2Ba%2Bremodel%25C3%25A9%2Bla%2Bd%25C3%25A9co%2Bde%2Bcette%2Bmaison%2Bdans%2Bl%2527envol%25C3%25A9e%2Bromantique%2Bd%2527une%2Bauberge%2Bespagnole.%26sl%3Den%26tl%3Dfr&rurl=translate.google.com&twu=1&usg=ALkJrhiBJQjzFQRhAPJkYY9P2hemmV-ABw"><img alt="Under the canopy, the dining room was" id="diaporama_pict" src="http://www.cotemaison.fr/imgs/2/182.jpg" /></a> Combination of wooden deck and a separate area made of stone slabs. <a href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=fr%7Cen&u=http://www.cotemaison.fr/maison-reve/maison-famille/diaporama/maison-neuve-a-l-ancienne-sur-l-ile-de-re_1254.html%3Fp%3D3&prev=/translate_s%3Fhl%3Den%26q%3DA%2Bc%25C3%25B4t%25C3%25A9%2Bde%2BSaint-Paul-de-Vence,%2Bla%2Bd%25C3%25A9coratrice%2BAnne%2Bd%2527Hauterives%2Ba%2Bremodel%25C3%25A9%2Bla%2Bd%25C3%25A9co%2Bde%2Bcette%2Bmaison%2Bdans%2Bl%2527envol%25C3%25A9e%2Bromantique%2Bd%2527une%2Bauberge%2Bespagnole.%26sl%3Den%26tl%3Dfr&rurl=translate.google.com&twu=1&usg=ALkJrhhXTsz9FDrx27myorl4yKYUAMXAfQ"><img alt="Metro Tile to a spacious kitchen" id="diaporama_pict" src="http://www.cotemaison.fr/imgs/2/187.jpg" /></a> Love the terracota flooring on the ground level.

Instead of a wall, the kitchen is separated from the living room with a glass partition. <a href="http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=fr%7Cen&u=http://www.cotemaison.fr/maison-reve/maison-famille/diaporama/maison-neuve-a-l-ancienne-sur-l-ile-de-re_1254.html%3Fp%3D7&prev=/translate_s%3Fhl%3Den%26q%3DA%2Bc%25C3%25B4t%25C3%25A9%2Bde%2BSaint-Paul-de-Vence,%2Bla%2Bd%25C3%25A9coratrice%2BAnne%2Bd%2527Hauterives%2Ba%2Bremodel%25C3%25A9%2Bla%2Bd%25C3%25A9co%2Bde%2Bcette%2Bmaison%2Bdans%2Bl%2527envol%25C3%25A9e%2Bromantique%2Bd%2527une%2Bauberge%2Bespagnole.%26sl%3Den%26tl%3Dfr&rurl=translate.google.com&twu=1&usg=ALkJrhi7WV4ZlErx7mrJLpQvHzV6lxFPGg"><img alt="Room with mezzanine" id="diaporama_pict" src="http://www.cotemaison.fr/imgs/2/195.jpg" /></a> The stairs in this nautical style bedroom leads up to a small balcony. <img alt="Walls clad with planks of fir shuttering" id="diaporama_pict" src="http://www.cotemaison.fr/imgs/2/193.jpg" style="width: 360px; height: 507px;" /> <img alt="Visit the bathroom" id="diaporama_pict" src="http://www.cotemaison.fr/imgs/2/199.jpg" style="width: 360px; height: 528px;" /> I like this bathroom with its soft colours and wood which make it warm. I wouldn't have the soap holder affixed to the wall, you'd get soapy water on the wooden surface which you will have to constantly be wiping off. A happy weekend to all of you. I'll be back tomorrow!
