At Sarah and Sébastien’s: A terrace like a cocoon
Sarah and Sébastien, married for 7 years, are passionate about architecture, decoration and interior design. Unable to find the rare pearl in the typical houses in their area near Calais, they opted for a construction project that began in 2021.

“We had hesitated with the Cubikcollection, but the photos of these projects tipped the balance in favor of Portland. We really don’t regret ordering our siding from ORSOL. “
They wanted a cozy outdoor space, and imagined an in-ground terrace where the Portland ORSOL collection found its place.
We preferred to start with a blank page and write our story.
explains Sébastien.
“We wanted a warm, cocooning corner where we could gather as a family, with our two daughters, or enjoy convivial moments with friends,” says Sarah.

To highlight the beauty of the cladding, Sarah added LED strips, which bring out the reliefs at dusk and make for cosy, warm evenings. Exterior landscaping has been meticulously designed. Potted trees, as seen here, and tastefully selected wooden furniture bring out the natural look of the cladding.
A terrace that attracts guests
As with most of the work on their self-built home, Sarah and Sébastien installed the ORSOL Portland siding themselves. ” Sébastien was in charge of the installation; it took him a good day, not counting the slab wall caps. It was very quick and easy! The rather large format of the sheet cladding makes it easy for even a small DIY enthusiast to install ,” says Sarah.
She adds: “We couldn’t be happier with our choice of Portland ORSOL cladding: it’s the rendering we wanted in terms of shade, nuances, relief… We’re really enjoying this underground living room, because we’re there so often. Guests even move more naturally towards the buried living room than towards the terrace!”
