In the heart of Provence, where olive groves, lavender hills, and vineyards embrace centuries-old châteaux, interior designer Héléna Monnet-Plat transformed an uninspired 1980s property into a home full of character, artistry, and Mediterranean soul.
Located in Aix-en-Provence, the birthplace of Cézanne, this 350 m² villa now opens into luminous, fluid spaces designed for family, friends, and timeless conversations around the fireplace. Custom furniture, sculptural curves, and a palette of earthy tones blend French elegance with Italian influences, creating a warm, theatrical universe that feels both intimate and grand.
A story of vision, passion, and style — captured through my lens for this month’s cover.
