Maisons Huot, Art Nouveau residential building in Nancy, France
Description
The Maisons Huot are two connected houses of different sizes with wooden balconies and ceramic-framed windows at 92 Quai Claude-le-Lorrain. The distinctive roofline and crafted details shape the appearance of these residential buildings.
History
The two houses were built between 1903 and 1904 for Frederic Huot using designs by architect Emile Andre. The project merged neo-Gothic and neo-Baroque elements within a contemporary residential concept.
Culture
The stained glass windows by Jacques Gruber show the skill of Nancy's craftspeople in the early 1900s. These windows demonstrate how much artisans valued quality and attention to detail in their work.
Practical
These residences are privately owned and can only be viewed from outside. The best views of the facade are from the street, where all the details and ornamentation are fully visible.
