Origin and history
The February house, located in Lège-Cap-Ferret, is an emblematic achievement of the architectural agency of Yves Salier. This monument is distinguished by its architectural and landscape qualities, reflecting a work of maturity in the course of its designer. Its registration as a Historic Monument in 2017 underlines its heritage importance, both for its design and for its integration into its environment.
The house, completely protected with its plate floor, was officially registered by ministerial decree on 24 November 2017. Although its precise location is considered mediocre (note of 5/10), it remains a notable example of contemporary architecture in the New Aquitaine region. No information is available about its public access or current uses (visits, rentals, accommodation).
Lège-Cap-Ferret, Gironde municipality, is known for its natural heritage and its buildings adapted to a coastal environment. The February house fits into this context, where modern architecture dialogue with the landscapes of the peninsula. His architect, Yves Salier, left a lasting impression, although little detail is available on the precise motivations or context of his creation.
