La Mine d’Or transforms the Ronsouze farm into an independent family-owned whisky distillery, organised around the memory of the old courtyard. The project rehabilitates the existing agricultural buildings while introducing new volumes for production, storage, and public reception.

The still room, shop, and offices are placed within the existing stone structures, preserving the character of the farm. New dark-tinted concrete volumes house the malt brewing room, cellars, and bar, creating a clear dialogue between heritage fabric and contemporary industrial architecture.

Landscape plays a central role in the project. Existing Breton oak hedgerows are preserved and reinforced, shaping soft transitions between production, visitor areas, and the wider estate. Sandblasted timber frames and stone walls reveal the material richness of the site, aligning the architecture with the craft, patience, and precision of whisky making.
