Parks and gardens in Versailles and the Yvelines

A house with a garden, a park or a large estate in the Yvelines: we design your garden to measure and supervise the works.

Florence Merrien, garden designer and creator in the landscape, is a graduate of the École nationale supérieure de paysage in Versailles.

Our view

Designing a garden in the Yvelines

  1. Reading the soil before drawing

    Chalky, clay or sandy: soils vary a lot from one town to the next. The soil survey guides the choice of plants.

  2. Respecting the heritage

    Near historic monuments and on protected sites, we take the opinion of the architecte des Bâtiments de France (the State’s heritage architect) into account from the sketch stage, when it is required.

  3. Talking with the landscape

    Forest edges, remarkable trees to preserve, views over the plain: the garden fits into its setting and welcomes biodiversity.

Frequently asked questions

Who should you choose for a garden in Versailles?

It depends on your needs: a landscaping company carries out the works, while a garden designer draws the project and supervises the works. FLAURE designs your garden to measure and coordinates our partner companies, which carry out the works on their own quotes.

Who does what?

Do you work in Jouars-Pontchartrain, Montfort-l’Amaury or Le Chesnay-Rocquencourt?

Yes. We work in Versailles and the surrounding area, in the Pontchartrain and Montfort-l’Amaury areas, and in the rest of the Yvelines. On request, we also travel anywhere in France and in neighbouring countries.

My garden is near a historic monument: what are the constraints?

Near a historic monument, works that need planning consent (prior declaration, permit) are reviewed by the architecte des Bâtiments de France. This is common in Versailles. We take it into account from the sketch stage: materials, heights, fences and planting suited to the site.

What our clients say

Justine

The FLAURE agency created our garden last year. We are very pleased with the result and enjoy watching our garden grow. The agency was highly competent and always available, and met our needs and wishes while bringing fresh ideas. You can trust them! Thank you again.

Brigitte

I am very satisfied with the FLAURE agency’s work. (…) The proposal took into account the north, north-east and south-east exposures, to suggest suitable plants, as well as the constraints (co-ownership rules, a concrete slab, etc.). The idea of a journey through the garden that echoes our interior decoration is spot on. Finding landscapers and metalworkers for a flower dome let us save money by staying local, with adjusted quotes. Supervision of the works allowed the final corrections to be made and as much of the existing garden as possible to be saved. I can’t wait for spring to see it all in bloom!

Carine

I called on the FLAURE agency after buying a plot of land for our future house. We wanted to plan ahead and start creating a wooded area, with shade and fruit trees, a hedge to screen us from the street and space for a vegetable garden. The team took our needs into account and designed a project that suited us. Their drawings helped us picture the result. The works were well run and lived up to our expectations. In short, thank you FLAURE!
