We took a garden as inspiration when we designed Greenhouse (GEN), a studio apartment in the heart of Gustavia, walking distance from the best restaurants, boutiques, and nightlife. It is part of the Lacour family estate, which comprises several uniquely designed suites and apartments around a tropical garden, as well as Sibarth’s headquarters—meaning our concierge team is right there to assist with practical matters or unforgettable surprises all over St. Barth. 

Inside the luxury rental property, there is a strong sense of easy island living. It is a vacation home where you can kick off your shoes and let your guard down. The interior continues the feeling of a garden, as the walls are painted Carriage Green. And when you open the windows, you can smell fragrant flowers and listen to birdsong.

Greenhouse is a simple place to simply chill out with a movie you have been wishing to see or a novel you have been wanting to read (but never had time for in your everyday life). It is a place to cook meals together in the well-equipped, good-sized kitchen—complete with a cute 1950s-style SMEG oven. We kept things calm to create a place for you to write your own story.
