Villa Prunet, Art Deco villa in Antony, France.
Villa Prunet is a concrete residential building with an elevated ground floor, basement, and square upper level located in Antony near Paris. A suspended spiral staircase links the interior spaces and creates a visual focus within the open layout.
The house was built in 1933 by architect Pierre Prunet as part of a series of four residences constructed between 1933 and 1939 in the area. These homes represented an important shift toward modernist residential design during that decade.
The house shows how architects in the 1930s worked with concrete and modern design ideas that were fresh and bold at the time. When you approach it, you can see the concrete forms and open spaces that were quite new for residential buildings then.
The house is located in Antony near Parc de Sceaux and is privately owned, so visitors can only view it from the street. Public transport connections make the area easy to reach as part of a walk through the neighborhood.
Since 1996, the house has been used as a filming location for television and cinema productions that make use of its distinctive interior spaces. The unusual architecture and modern spatial qualities attract productions looking for authentic modernist settings.
