The work I have to do for my thesis for the most part of time regards the study of archive's documents and draws, but sometimes also the visit of some hotel particulieres such as Villa Berthe. After have sent some email, yesterday I finally got the chance to go to Vasinet to see this beautiful building. Villa Berthe is one of the first Hector Guimard Art Nouveau projects and it's called "La Hublotière" due to the presence of round openings in the form of windows at the base of the side walls. The house is built on three levels, and each facade has originality and identity. Sitting on a stone base blonde treated so millstone recalling medieval times, the house seems well placed and yet remains light and enjoyable to watch. The entrance gate, located on the right of the field, immediately sets the tone, with its wrought iron "vert tige" and its fine curves, slender, with "coup de fouet". This curve is the main characteristic of the style of Guimard, which is found on almost all his works. La Hublotière is a remarkable symbiosis of neo-Gothic influence, inspired by his master Viollet-le-Duc, and the abstract naturalism that the artist liked so much. The architecture of the outside and the inside together create an unusual but beautiful and interesting place to live.
