Garden- Paris 17th

Private garden in Paris. Hidden from sight, nestled against a 19th century building, lies a large garden, abandoned for 30 years. It is only accessible from the apartment of our clients. They confide in us their dream of a fragrant, flower-filled garden in which their children can run and play hide-and-seek. We had to completely redesign the garden, whose main shortcomings were that it was surrounded by high walls and that the 30m² at the end of the garden housed six 25m-high ailanthus altissima. After a pruning operation approved by the authorities, involving gentle trimming of most of the trees and large shrubs, a structure took shape. The walls were concealed by a variety of climbers, with bamboo as back-up for the bottom of the garden. Three new trees were planted, various flowerbeds were redesigned in a light and colorfull athmospher. The diseased boxwood bed was replaced by a synthetic lawn to limit maintenance. A few years later, our customers wanted to make better use of the area at the end of the garden and called on Panorama Terrasses, one of our regular partners, to create a magnificent ipe terrace for entertaining numerous guests. The dining area is surrounded by delicate ipe cladding, with jasmine climbing over it. Panorama also built a custom cabanon to provide the necessary storage for this outdoor entertaining area which now perfectly fits into the garden we designed and improved over the years.
