Villa Le Trident

Residential Buildings

The Villa Le Trident is a Modernist villa built in 1925 by the American architect Barry Dierks for himself and his partner, Colonel Eric Sawyer, on the Pointe de l'Esquillon in Théoule-sur-Mer on the French Riviera. The villa quickly drew the interest of cultivated Riviera society, and it helped establish Dierks as one of the region's most sought-after architects in the years that followed. Its guestbook has recorded such visitors as Picasso, Somerset Maugham, Noel Coward, and the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
