For Peter Mikic, it was a case of great minds thinking alike when he was commissioned to renovate this sprawling old farmhouse overlooking the breathtaking Gulf of Saint-Tropez for an English couple he had worked with on previous house projects. 'The clients love colorful, playful interiors,' Peter explains. 'They like pattern and texture, and they really encourage you to go in that direction – which I love.'
Originally, the plan was simply to refresh the farmhouse, but the project quickly evolved into a full structural renovation after a massive crack was discovered running through the middle of the property. 'We had to tear down half the house and rebuild it because it was slowly shifting,' says Peter. 'We managed to reconstruct one side while preserving many of the original features.' The terracotta roof was also replaced, and the outdoor spaces were reimagined, with Peter Mikic redesigning the pool area.
