Hôtel de Guillaume de Bernuy

From 1540 to 1544 Bachelier built a main house with two floors, which separated the courtyard from the garden and which stood at right angles with another building.

[2] Bachelier focused his efforts on the windows, also he lent more attention to the monumental door, a veritable bravura passage replacing the staircase tower in its symbolic significance.

These windows display the same classical style that Bachelier developed for Hôtel de Bagis in 1538, but the upper and lower section of the frames gained in sophistication through the use of tables decorated with masks and grotesques.

The motifs resemble the ornaments of Francis I Gallery in Fontainebleau Palace, that were being highly appreciated in the kingdom at that time.

Designs also circulated within the bounds of the city, as demonstrated by the desire of 'classical windows' and the fact that the masks on this house were repeated on the consoles of the Hôtel d'Assézat passageway.
