Игорь Литуринский и Ронан Леост (студия Liturinsky & Leost) реконструировали виллу в Антибах на Лазурном Берегу. Авторы создали роскошный фантазийный интерьер и сад, похожий на сказочный лес. История началась с того, что заказчик купил в Антибах двухэтажные апартаменты. И пригласил оформить их дизайнеров студии Liturinsky & Leost.

Стоявшая на нем вилла начала ХХ века его не устраивала и явно нуждалась в реконструкции, зато там были два дерева, в которые он, по его словам, просто влюбился: старые, раскидистые, очень графичные, они создавали ощущение сказочного леса. Кого из дизайнеров приглашать для создания интерьера, сомнений не возникло.
