The Arcachon Basin has managed to absorb intense development right up to the borders of Cap Ferret and the peninsula of the ten villages. With a marked predilection for individual housing, the area has continued to welcome architects' villas that have shaped its current face. Divided between a search for comfort and a concern for the preservation of the natural environment, the designers - including Salier Lajus Courtois Sadirac, Raphaëlle Hondelatte, and Philippe Starck - have competed with each other in ingenuity to fit into a grandiose yet fragile territory.
Through a new iconography, this book recounts the epic of these protean creations, which have in common the quest for a symbiosis with the landscape.
