When interior designer Marie-Laure Helmkampf found an old oil mill in the South of France she was smitten. Though most of the original structure had to be rebuilt completely, Marie-Laure managed to retain a lot of the original character & charm. The rusticity of the traditional stone work, the exposed natural wood, & organic textures mixed with sleek modern lines, and abundance of natural light have resulted in a warm, inviting and relaxed home.

I wonder what it looked like before? It's quite beautiful - especially with those fabulous arched windows, streaming in all that wonderful sunshine.

For me, this is the perfect place to live a happy and serene life.

I love those old warehouses, mills, barns converted to homes, but kept with original features.
Just saw an interesting show of a huge old crop warehouse restored as a home, reminded quite much of this lovely building.
We are reaching nearly 30 C today! What a lovely start for summer!
Dear Charlotta,
Hello! Your page has been having trouble loading on my computer. I didn't want you to think I wasn't visiting anymore :) I decided to stick to it this morning until it did! So I just go caught up on all your lovely posts :) I love everything!! The Sunday sunshine was a warm a fuzzy post. I am so excited that summer is almost here! It basically is, but I don't kick it off until school is out on Friday!! Woo hoo. I can't wait for our summer travels and enjoying friends and family. This featured home doesn't look like anything we will be visiting, but I sure do find it inspiring. It's so simple, yet so grand. It is so unassuming, yet so confidently chic. Love, love, love it!!
XO,
Kelly

Hello Charlotta,
First off, thank you for the lovely and kind comments. I hope that our Monika has well and will return home safe and sound soon. As for this place, well, I think I am in heaven... spacious, a little rustic, incredibly beautiful, all of the elements are there. I am in love.
Wishing you a wonderful week,

I completely love those stones & natural woods. The house is very charming and welcoming.
Great post!
Hi there lovely!
Every inch of this lovely abode is TDF!! Oh, and how abut all that natural light? So, with school is officially on summer break today(though i go in for 2 more days next week for workshops), so i'll have time to chit chat more in the coming days. Can't wait!! XX
Absolutely incredible -what a place and what great bones!
I love the idea of creating a new home in a building that was once used for another purpose. What a lovely job she has done combining the old and new! Hope you are having a lovely weekend Charlotta. Nicolex
Oh my! What a place, Charlotta!
Hard to be unhappy in that house!
It is hard to get back to blogging after a few weeks off - but it is good to be back here!
Happy weekend to you and hugs to the entire family!

P.S Your new header looks great!
Hi my darlings. I'm glad you enjoyed this tour. I felt weak at the knees scrolling over several of these rooms and can so see myself lounging here!
Big hugs to all!
