This Norman-style manor house had been for sale for several years without ever finding a potential buyer. The main reason was that it was one of the most expensive houses in Paris. Its price per square metre reached almost €56,000, and the transaction amounted to €69 million. Initially listed at €80 million, the mansion was reportedly sold directly to a foreign fortune by luxury developer Côté.The luxury developer Cogemad carried out the entire renovation, installing a hidden nightclub, a cinema and a 16-meter indoor swimming pool... It's a rare property on the market, with architecture reminiscent of properties on the Normandy coast, with towers, facades and balconies, but all in the heart of Paris, at a very prestigious address in the capital - Avenue Foch. In addition to its typical Normandy features, the manor also boasts a host of technologies, including a professional gym, a high-performance stereo system, an XXL kitchen and many other surprises... The dining room also boasts a gold-leaf ceiling, antique mirrors and a crystal chandelier. Photo Credit : Cogemad

Nestled in the arid, majestic landscape of California's Joshua Tree desert is a home that seems to have come straight out of a dream. Known as the "Invisible House", this stunning residence is a true architectural feat that fuses harmoniously with its natural surroundings. In this article, we'll take you on a journey to discover the secrets and beauty of this extraordinary home. Located near Joshua Tree National Park, the "Invisible House" is the fruit of the creativity and talent of couple Chris & Roberta Hanley and architect Tomas Osinski, collaborator of world-renowned architect Franck Gehry. The house was designed using innovative materials and techniques, enabling the structure to literally blend into the desert landscape. From the outside, the house appears almost invisible, blending perfectly with the blue sky and surrounding rocks. Inside, the house is a blend of contemporary design and rustic touches. Pristine white walls, polished concrete floors and minimalist furnishings create a clean, modern aesthetic, while wooden accents, splashes of bright color and artwork bring warmth and personality to the space. The house also offers stunning views of the surrounding desert thanks to its large picture windows and panoramic terraces. In addition to its impressive aesthetics, the "Invisible House" is also a model of sustainability and energy efficiency. Architecture enthusiasts have probably already had the opportunity to discover this house, whether in the program broadcast on Netflix entitled "the world's Most Amazing Vacation Rentalsthrough films, or perhaps on the Airbnb website, where it is available for rent at a rate of $2,500 per night.
