La Super Cadenelle est une résidence de standing des années 1970 à Marseille conçue par les architectes François Bart et Joël Hardion.

Implantée dans un grand parc dominant la baie du Prado, elle illustre une typologie d’habitat issue du mouvement moderne, avec un plan de masse brutal peu adapté à la forte déclivité du terrain.

Son architecture est simple, de style international : immeubles enduits en blanc et gris clair, parements de mosaïque, verre, aluminium et marbre.

François Bart & Joël Hardion

François Bart (1908 – 1984) et Joël Hardion (1913 – 2002) sont deux architectes qui ont œuvré dans la reconstruction d’après-guerre.

À l’issue de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, ils obtiennent leur agrément de reconstructeurs pour le département des Bouches-du-Rhône et prennent ainsi part au relèvement de Marseille.

Amélie BERTRAND

Sales Assistant

An epicurean at heart and a native of Marseille, Amélie has also lived in Lyon and Paris—experiences that have broadened her perspective and fostered her cultural openness. She cultivates a keen appreciation for aesthetics and the art of living.

Passionate about fashion, design—particularly 1970s furniture, which she especially loves—and all things aesthetic, she draws inspiration from atmospheres, encounters, and details that tell a story. Eager to deepen her skills and develop her entrepreneurial mindset, Amélie enrolled in a business school in Aix-en-Provence on a work-study program and joined the team as a Sales Assistant.

A choice that enables her to enrich her strategic vision, acquire practical tools, and evolve her projects into solid, creative outcomes. Naturally curious and versatile, she finds her balance in multidisciplinary environments where aesthetics and meaning converge.

It was only natural, then, that ARCHIK won her over with its strong identity, its holistic approach combining design, architecture, and real estate, and the diverse profiles that make up the team—an inspiring environment where Amélie can fully express her sensibility, energy, and ambitions.

Lisa SANSONE

Artistic Director's Assistant

A lifelong resident of Martégale, she grew up on the shores of the Étang de Berre, in a landscape shaped by water, harbors, and Mediterranean architecture. This setting has shaped her sensibility and perspective, with a particular focus on lines, textures, and everything that defines a place’s identity. Her attachment to the South is also reflected in its traditions and flavors, with a special fondness for bottarga.

Currently pursuing a master’s degree in Art Direction at BRASSART in Aix-en-Provence, she enjoys creating cohesive visual worlds and bringing them to life across various media. Curious and meticulous, she observes closely, researches, experiments, and refines her work until she finds the right balance between intention, aesthetics, and simplicity.

Her inspiration comes from everyday life, often during her travels. A building facade, the typography of a sign, the layout of a menu, packaging, or a detail spotted on the street can be enough to spark an idea. She is particularly drawn to clean, minimalist designs, beautiful materials, and compositions where each element naturally finds its place.

Her vision directly reflects ARCHIK’s world and its approach to beauty, design, and the art of living. As an artistic director on a work-study program, she helps bring this identity to life across all communication channels, ensuring that the brand maintains the understated, elegant, and recognizable aesthetic that immediately drew her to the company.

EX LIBRIS I 10 ANS ARCHIK

Septembre – Décembre 2025

To celebrate its 10th anniversary, ARCHIK invited 10 artists and designers to revisit the same object: the bookend. Exclusive editions are presented at our Marseille headquarters through the group exhibition Ex Libris.

A variation on a theme, drawing on different skills and materials to reveal the stylistic richness of a classic library item that has fallen into disuse.

This exhibition pays tribute to the graphic universe that has surrounded books for centuries, as well as to the artists who still strive to renew the genre today, thereby preserving the magic of libraries, in contrast to the all-digital world.

A theme that echoes the release of the sixth edition of the Revue, the agency’s annual publication that expresses the founders’ keen interest in printed matter and beautiful books.

LE CHANT DES VESTIGES I LDG ART & PATRIMOINE

Juin 2025

ARCHIK is hosting “Le Chant des Vestiges”, a group exhibition conceived by gallery owner Laetitia de Galzain, founder of the LDG Art & Patrimoine gallery.

Manon Garcia del Barrio, artist and textile designer, and La Fille de Tipaza, ceramic artist, invite us into a silent world of materials and textures, white noise and memory.

Sharing a common source of inspiration, the Mediterranean, the two artists offer us an immersion into times long gone, which each of us can approach at our own pace, explore with our eyes, and bring back traces of: fragments of pottery, antique notebooks, treasures from the sea, delicate silhouettes, and majestic forms covered in seaweed and moss.

Carried by the words of Isabelle Alentour, poet of intimacy, the works take shape and voice, revealing life where everything seemed destined to disappear in a subdued, whispered world, where only resistant forms remain.

Les artistes

Manon Garcia del Barrio – textile artist
Manon Garcia del Barrio lives and works in Marseille. She weaves sensitive works from natural fibers and recycled materials, combining textiles, storytelling, and memory. With strong ties to the sea, her work explores the links between materials, territory, and transmission. A graduate of HEAR, she recently completed a residency in Nigeria and exhibited at the Marseille History Museum.

Isabelle Alentour – poet
Born in Marseille, Isabelle Alentour comes from a background in scientific and clinical research. Her poetic writing, nourished by listening and wonder, extends artistic gestures with a hushed, whispered voice. She regularly collaborates with visual artists.

La Fille de Tipaza – ceramic artist
Delphine Picard, alias La Fille de Tipaza, creates ceramic pieces imbued with silence and memory. Inspired by the Mediterranean and the poetry of Albert Camus, she shapes clay with a raw and instinctive sensitivity, making the material the vehicle for an emotion rooted in intimacy and landscape.

L’ÉCRIN I MARIE JEUNET

April 2025

ARCHIK welcomes “L'ECRIN”,
an ode to matter imagined by Marie Jeunet.

In the teeming landscape of contemporary design, Parisian artist-designer Marie Jeunet stands out for her luminous sculptures that transcend materials and capture the essence of light. Her delicate, sensitive work magnifies materials such as glass, brass and stone, revealing their singularity through a subtle play of reflections, giving life to hypnotic luminaires conducive to reverie.

These refined creations play on illusion: glass that looks smooth yet is full of history, rigid brass that turns out to be supple, the false lightness of a stone piece…

To stage her exhibition “L’ECRIN”, Marie Jeunet turned to Casamance, a benchmark in fabric publishing. The brand is renowned for its finely crafted fabrics, reflecting expert know-how. For this exhibition, Marie chose a Mennagio mordoré taffeta with a brittle, refined fall.

The Relax Factory tapestry workshop was responsible for the décor, creating a refined space that plays with the drapery of the fabric to evoke the delicate folds of a jewel case, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in a universe that is both raw and sophisticated.

The artist

Passionate about the decorative arts and jewelry, Marie Jeunet imagines her works as interior jewels that, once illuminated, reveal the beauty of the materials they’re made of.

Her unique approach, on the border between art and design, and her attention to detail, make each piece a truly precious object, imbued with sensitivity and grace. A delicate balance, a subtle blend of minimalist forms and dreamlike projections.

FE + C

September 2024

To coincide with the release of Revue N°5 on the theme of Metal, ARCHIK extends its tribute to this material to Marseille and presents Fe + C, an exhibition by memòri studio.

The physical embodiment of La Revue N°5’s “Objects of Covetousness” column, the memòri studio has reproduced the interior of the director of the insurance firm “Fe + C”, a design enthusiast and creative genius with avant-garde ideas.

In the 1980s, he designed furniture for his offices. The man who seemed eccentric at the time had an unusual metal set made by an industrialist: bookcase, desk, wall lamps and coffee table.

He’s as passionate about the brilliant shine of alloys as he is about manual activities; he gathers his clay, his pigments and experiments. The result is an extravagant yet extraordinarily beautiful interior where materials and textures come together. He paints his walls a self-made brick-red color reminiscent of iron mines.

Les artistes

Founded in 2020, memòri is a creative studio that brings together different craft disciplines with the aim of constantly questioning practices and their transmission. It’s an ode to singular traditions, to know-how rooted in the Mediterranean basin, with the desire to reactivate collective memories to make them alive and current again.

On the borderline between the production of objects in very small quantities and the creation of a wardrobe of unique pieces, the exploration continues with a selection of 20th-century design objects and furniture. The studio works in these different fields, with the sole aim of integrating a craftsman’s approach and a sustainable approach to manufacturing and production.

Between invention, design and utopia, this dreamy, imaginative, manual creator is inhabited and tortured by a whirlwind of singular ideas.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Dates

Opening on Thursday, September 19, 2024 from 7pm

Exhibition on view from September 19, 2024 until the end of 2024

Open Monday to Friday, 10 am to 6.30 pm, by appointment only

In the heart of Vauban, this townhouse entirely restructured by architect now enjoys an outdoor patio redesigned in a Mediterranean spirit, to enjoy every day.

Objectif

Develop this small area nestled at the back of the house, and bring together all the functions of an exterior, playing on its connection with the large living room.

Ligne de conduite

The intention was to free up the space while integrating it into the interior renovation thanks to the choice of materials, to blur the inside-outside boundary, typical of the Marseilles way of life.

The 4.50 by 2.50 meter freijo wood bay window naturally connects the two spaces.

Mise en oeuvre

The idea was to work with masonry elements to gain space and create rhythm. Basin, benches and planters are directly inserted into the volume of the patio, which is now ready to house the bulk of the summer kitchen. The tree planters in the background break the verticality of the space, and are composed of strelitzia reginae and augusta, aspidistra, and euphorbia ingens and myrsinite.

The strict lines of the elements are mixed with raw and mineral materials in warm tones to invoke the sweetness of Mediterranean living.

While the walls are adorned with a light sand-colored plaster, the floor is entirely covered with tiles made of quartz powder and salmon-colored granite with an aged look by the Italian brand La Pietra Compattata. The southern influence continues in the choice of outdoor furniture, with the custom-made dark brick-colored seat cushions and the terracotta tiled table, made by Honoré.

A summer feeling all year round.
