Fishing huts in France

Along France's Atlantic coast stand characteristic fishing huts built on wooden stilts, also known as carrelets or pêcheries. These simple structures were built for sustainable, small-scale fishing with a square net. They are characteristic of coastal regions such as Charente-Maritime, Loire-Atlantique, and the Gironde. The photos in this collection capture the tranquility and simplicity of these fishing huts. Clean lines, soft colors, and the open space of sea and sky are central. Each image evokes the quiet rhythm of the tide and the connection between humanity and water. This series of minimalist photographs fits well in interiors where tranquility, light, and natural tones are important.
