Villa Greystones, Protected historical monument in Dinard, France

Villa Greystones features three-sided bay windows, squared rubble granite stones construction, and a roof terrace with ocean views at the French Emerald Coast.

Michel Roux-Spitz designed and constructed Villa Greystones between 1938 and 1950, incorporating modern architecture principles with classical French building elements.

Artists Alfred Janniot and Louis Bouquet contributed to the villa by creating decorative elements, including a fresco depicting a five-step imaginary journey.

The villa, situated at coordinates 48.640194, -2.060778, belongs to art collector François Pinault and underwent a two-year restoration to preserve its architecture.

The central spiral staircase leads to a rotunda living room and Neptune fountain garden, representing Roux-Spitz's vision of combining reinforced concrete with white stone.
