From the Agent: "This eco-responsible housing is the result of a collaboration between Ciguë Architecture and the developer Ma. It’s set in the village of Barbizon, 30 miles from Paris, in an enclosed six-acre estate on the edge of the Forest of Fontainebleau. The project consists of a set of seven high-end ecological houses, made from wood and surrounded by private landscaped land. Each lot can be designed in close dialogue with its buyer who will have a range of architectural options to develop a living space adapted to their desires and needs: double-slope or inverted roofs; natural or tinted facades; round or orthogonal bay windows; terraces on the ground floor, halfway up, or on the roof, covered or not, etc. A detached house has between 1,463 and 2,045 square feet of living space. Each house offers a freely customizable program, ranging from a family home on two levels to a large, double-height free volume. The interior design will be entirely custom-made."
The project is located on the edge of the Forest of Fontainebleau, near the charming village of Barbizon.

"All housing materials are bio-sourced or geo-sourced, for a minimal carbon footprint," explains the agent. "The high-performance insulation is made of wood fiber and hemp wool to guarantee a healthy atmosphere, and the joinery and cladding are made of wood."
