In 1954, architect Jacques Dupuis created this terraced house, in a style completely different from the neighboring houses.

It has all the typical elements of the 1950s movement, painted wooden slats for the entrance and garage door, natural stone side walls, balconies adorned with very graphic railings.

A column in blue mosaics supports the second floor.

The blue painted concrete is also remarkable, it is found in a large number of constructions of this period.

The whole reflects this beautiful post-war years optimism !
