Maison Delcourt, Modernist villa in Croix, France.
The Delcourt House is a modernist villa in Croix defined by strong horizontal lines and expansive glass windows that blur the boundary between interior and garden. The construction incorporates regional materials: bricks from Hem for the fireplace and Artois stone for the flooring throughout.
The villa was built in 1968 for Marcel Delcourt, the director of the mail-order company 3 Suisses, making it a turning point for the household. It stands as the only work by American architect Richard Neutra in France, marking a singular moment in French architectural history.
The house takes its name from its original owner, a prominent figure in the regional business world. Inside, you can still see the custom-designed furnishings that were created specifically for the residence and reflect the modern design ideals of that era.
The grounds feature a carefully designed garden that creates a natural flow between house and surroundings. Visitors should allow time to explore both the interior spaces with their custom furnishings and the thoughtfully planned outdoor layout.
The interior furnishings, including the staircase, sofas, and bookshelves, were custom-designed by architects Richard Neutra and Bruno Honegger specifically for this residence and remain in place today. These considered details reveal how the living space was conceived as a unified composition.
