Originally from Antwerp in Belgium, Manon spent her youth in the sunny South of France, between the Côte d’Azur and Montpellier, where she graduated with a master’s degree in Communication. A professional opportunity made her go back to her native Belgium, but she missed the South too much and came back to settle in Marseille, her favourite city.

A globetrotter since her youth, Manon has travelled to many countries to discover other cultures and traditions. Sensitive to environmental issues, she even spent several months in Costa Rica to contribute to the rehabilitation of the local fauna.

What does she love? Art in all its forms. Architecture, music, fashion, photography, gastronomy… The art of life!

And particularly the balance and singularity of the murals by SupaKitch & Koralie, a couple of French urban artists who have, among other things, created the Halles du Lez in Montpellier.

Passionate about decoration, renovation and human stories, Manon joins the ARCHIK team, wishing to bring to her clients her enthusiasm and dedication to the realisation of the projects that are close to their hearts.

Alexia is a true globetrotter who grew up between the Var, Brittany and Tahiti. Lulled by travels and moves, she cultivates her curiosity and her taste for beautiful things, especially fashion and architecture.

After studying at a business school in Toulon and then in Paris, Alexia started working in fashion with brands such as Zadig&Voltaire, Claudie Pierlot and Heyraud. A national and then international experience of more than 10 years where she applies her high standards, her sense of aesthetics and her ability to listen to the brands’ headquarters and then to the boutiques. In France, Spain and even in Singapore, where she settled to develop the commercial strategy of the Château de sable brand.

Human and sunny, Alexia is passionate about beauty through art, fashion, architecture and… painting. A fervent fan of Soulages and Basquiat, appreciating old stones as much as raw concrete, as much a city dweller as a hiker, Alexia is in love with contrasts.

A beautiful page will be turned in 2021 to open a new story with ARCHIK, in the conquest of precious and hidden properties from Allauch to Toulon, via Cassis and La Ciotat. There is no doubt that this fighter will take up all the challenges at your side by accompanying you in the discovery of your future property!

ENSUES-LA-REDONNE

Located between the garrigues, pine trees and the sea, Ensues-la-Redonne is a typical village of the Côte Bleue, along the Estaque mountain range, with a breathtaking view of the Mediterranean.

Set back from the coast and sheltered from the sea winds by the wooded Graffian plateau, the historic village lies at the bottom of the rocky hills where vines and olive trees also grow. It has village houses and a few shops, as well as a market every wednesday morning. Ensues-la-Redonne is also home to some beautiful coves and creeks that stretch along the coast. La Madrague de Gignac, La Redonne, Les Figuières, Le Petit Méjean, Grand Méjean, all offer a view of the crystal clear waters.

For the walkers, a very beautiful stroll is to be made along the path of the customs officers where 5 km of paths were arranged and inserted between the ochre rocks and the pines plunging towards the deep reflections of the sea.

Charm and change of scenery are guaranteed for this authentic village with a Provencal feel.
