Palais Bulles, the destination that inspired this year’s NOMAD exhibition private sales collaboration, is a building that is easily and often misunderstood. Lavishly extending its extravagant bubbles over 1,200 square meters with views onto the Mediterranean Sea, it features ten original suites, an open-air amphitheater of 500 seats, and a garden space comprising over 8,500 square meters, including a swimming pool and various smaller, flowing ponds.
Undoubtedly, this is an estate of flourishing grandeur art furniture — but it is also a radical piece of architecture that proposes new ways of living without compromise.
Owned by the 98-year-old design legend Pierre Cardin since 1992, it was originally built by the Hungarian architect Antti Lovag for his friend and patron, the French industrialist Pierre Bernard, and completed in 1989.
