By the shores of Lake Mouriscot, a family house

There are few briefs more demanding, for an architect, than this one: designing the house where his own parents would grow old. At the turn of the 1990s, an architect from Biarritz took it on, without reaching for effect or demonstration. What emerged was a house of around 160 m², set apart, just steps from the quiet shores of Lake Mouriscot — a place designed from the inside, for the people who would live there rather than for those who would look at it.A plot that absorbsThe land runs to over 700 m² and absorbs the noise of the town without ever cutting the house off from its surroundings. The greenery isn't a selling point, it's a tool: it frames the view, filters the low late-afternoon light, and means that from the living spaces, all you see is canopy and sky. Nothing to correct, nothing to hide.A confident 1990s handNo conventional neo-Basque, no contemporary cube either. The house wears its era openly: generous yet legible volumes, circulation that never forces you through one room to reach another, a layout that gives everyone their own share of quiet. It's a house built for ordinary family life — a lunch that runs long, a fire lit in winter — not for the photographed moment.Its 160 m² of living space unfold without ever running into an awkward circulation. The grounds, wooded and free of overlooking neighbours, remain rare this close to the lake — a few minutes' walk is enough to get there, in an area most visitors to Biarritz never pass through. Some houses sell from a floor plan this one is understood by walking through it — it was designed by someone who already knew who would live there. It's a house waiting for a family, not a buyer.

Architect-designed 240 sq m villa in Chiberta, sea views from the rooftop terrace

Philippe Pastre designed this house in Chiberta, seven years after opening his practice in Biarritz. You recognise his hand before you even step inside: a cubic volume, smooth white render, a roof terrace without the slightest overhang, a parapet cutting clean against the sky. No ornament on the façades. Everything happens in the openings. The main gesture is on the roof. A small, fully glazed volume, set back on the slab, reaching for the ocean over the line of the pines. That is where the sea view is direct, and only there. From the living room you see the garden and the pool. For the horizon, you go up. The two faces of the house are not treated the same way, and that contrast is what holds it together. To the south, a full-height aluminium sliding bay, an awning housed in a continuous casing, and the hardwood terrace running down to the pool. To the north, narrow vertical slits, calibrated to bring in light without opening onto the neighbour. Two levels, plus the rooftop. Four bedrooms and four bathrooms, one per bedroom, which is rare across 240 m² and shows the moment the house is full. The plot measures 1,114 m²: villa and pool take up little ground and leave a proper lawn planted with pines and olive trees around the building. That ratio is what you can no longer make up for in Chiberta today. Full renovation in 2018, reversible air conditioning. A garden-level store of more than 20 m² for equipment. Three cars park on the plot, behind the boundary wall. The pool is unheated: swimming from late May to September, beyond that a heat pump would need to be fitted. The neighbourhood does the rest. 200 m on foot to the Plage des Dunes, 500 m to the clubhouse of Chiberta golf course, a links laid out in 1927 by Tom Simpson across the sand dunes.
