The Du Tour Residence is a project led by Architecture Open Form who renovated it for a family who had owned the 1960s home for decades.

The white walls offer the perfect canvas for a curated art collection by artists, like Noemie Goudal, Tauba Auerbach, and Josef Hoflehner, where each piece works as a contrast to the muted color palette.
