Built in 1931 by architects Alexandre Ferenczy and Hermann Henselmann on the shores of Lake Geneva, Villa Kenwin is a landmark testimony to the Bauhaus movement in Switzerland. Named after its patrons, film director Kenneth Macpherson and writer Annie Winifred Ellerman, it is a centre for the intellectual and artistic avant-garde.
The villa underwent an exemplary renovation by architect Giovanni Pezzoli in 1987, restoring it to its original splendour and leading to its designation as a Swiss cultural asset of national importance.
Set in 5,241 m² of landscaped grounds overlooking the Vaud Riviera, the Villa Kenwin offers 550 m² of living space over four levels. It is topped by a superb roof terrace offering spectacular views of Lake Geneva and the mountain panorama.
A short driveway crosses an orchard and leads to the main entrance, which features a range of blues to reflect the polychrome theme of the site. This lower ground floor accomodates the service rooms.
On the upper ground floor, a bright hall leads to a kitchen lit by a skylight and the living room, which is accessible through a metal door. The reception area spans 150 m² under 5 metre high ceilings and is overlooked by an interior mezzanine balcony with curved lines, bordered by elegant metal railings. The room is naturally lit by a large 15-metre horizontal bay window that frames the view of the lake and landscape. Under the balcony, a glass roof reveals a library. Upstairs is a workroom that doubles as a projection area.
On the top floor, the sleeping area has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms distributed along a U-shaped corridor like the cabins of a boat. The rooms are decorated in a minimalist, modernist style, with armchairs inspired by the work of Charlotte Perriand, functional furniture and Bauhaus-style wall lamps.
Villa Kenwin is located in La Tour-de-Peilz in the Canton of Vaud, Switzerland.
It enjoys an idyllic location on the shores of Lake Geneva, facing the Pre-Alps, between Montreux and Vevey, and overlooks an exceptional landscape of mountains, vineyards, old villages and illustrious buildings of the modern movement, such as Adolphe Loos's famous Karma villa, a typical example of ?Neues Bauen' architecture.
