Our Specialty: Landscaping in
—Creating outdoor spaces that reflect your style
In Aix-en-Provence, creating a garden means adapting to the climate as much as to the landscape.
Here, summers are scorching, winters can be unpredictable, water is a precious resource, and the risk of wildfires is very real.
I design contemporary Mediterranean gardens, dry gardens, and green spaces built to last, adapt, and remain beautiful all year round.
My approach is simple: to imagine spaces that reflect who you are—elegant and vibrant, with just the right structure. Gardens that are water-efficient in the summer, capable of providing shade, coolness, and comfort every day.
Here, summers are scorching, winters can be unpredictable, water is precious, and the risk of fire is very real. By selecting plants suited to the Provençal climate, using a carefully curated plant palette, and employing thoughtful design, I combine aesthetics, resilience, and safety.
I work with both private clients and businesses (hotels, bed-and-breakfasts, restaurants, companies). My goal is to create a cohesive and enhancing outdoor setting—whether it’s an intimate patio, a contemporary terrace, a graphic dry garden, or structured green spaces. Each project is custom-designed with sensitivity and common sense.
Biodiversity is central to my thinking
Along with trees and palms, I don’t overlook flowering and fruiting plants. I like to diversify the plant layers and create habitats that support local wildlife. This contributes to the garden’s natural balance. A living garden is more resilient, more stable, and more harmonious over time.
Rainwater management is also integrated from the design phase, to make the most of every natural source and limit runoff.
I strive to create more sustainable gardens, designed for today and for years to come.
International experience
"My experience in the Sultanate of Oman also informs every project.
There, I worked on gardens where elegant design is a true hallmark.
In Muscat, one of the hottest capital cities in the world, designing a garden means accounting for the heat, the sun, and the scarcity of water. I discovered ancestral techniques such as the "falaj," those famous irrigation systems.
I draw inspiration from this experience to design unique, aesthetic, livable, and sustainable gardens and green spaces."

The design phases
Our profession
Asthe architects of your outdoor space, our expertise lies in transforming a simple plot of land into a true living space. Our goals? Aesthetic appeal, of course, but also creating a space that reflects your personality and meets your specific needs
Consultation and analysis
We start by meeting with you. This allows us to fully understand your preferences, your constraints, your lifestyle, and the unique characteristics of your property
Design and creativity
Next, using this information, we’ll sketch out your project. We’ll present you with a mood board featuring various potential styles to ensure we’re fully aligned with your vision. Then we’ll create some sketches of the living spaces and pathways… followed by 2D and/or 3D plans.
Once the plans are complete, we’ll advise you on the selection of plants and materials to create a balanced design that reflects your personality
Our plans
Our expertise lies in incorporating installations such as terraces, pergolas and dry stone walls into our plans... We also integrate pathways,lighting andautomatic watering systems... while taking into account rainwater management and the protection of biodiversity.
