Fragments.
The Domain
Before the A-frame, there is the family land: the hills of Sainte-Luce, palms, ridgelines, and the feeling of being alone in a piece of Martinique.
The A-frame
The A-frame is one part of the domain: open to the garden, tall under the gable, simple in its use, and always close to the outside.
The Tropical Garden
The garden is what we have most: mango, guava, flamboyant, volcanic rocks, and a piece of hillside that slowly closes around you.
Outdoor Living
Les Vendredis is lived outside: hammock time, breakfast with fruit, pets in the garden, an open kitchen, solar shower, and days that move slowly.
At night
When the garden lights come on, the place changes pace: the covered terrace becomes the main room, the A-frame stays open, and the paths move under string lights.
The Making
The luxury here also comes from time: cutting, lifting, cladding, starting again, and building a place that still carries the hand that made it.
The family
Anaïs, Bolo, Léon & Samsam.
We started working on the place in 2022, bought the A-frame plans from Den, and built it by hand with a few friends over two years.
At Les Vendredis we live outside: Léon runs the paths, Samsam sleeps in the shade, Dimdim the rooster crosses the garden. When we're not here, the place stays open to people who love handmade, simple, slightly slow places.
The journal keeps the notes from the build and the garden.
