We were really excited when the opportunity to feature French fashion designer Agnes B's Versailles garden in Belle Magazine arose, thanks to Australian photographer Carla Coulson. After a lot of back and forth with Agnes B HQ in Paris (typical!) we finally got the go ahead to run with it. Thanks for your patience Carla! The effort was well worth it and the pics look amazing.

Perched on the side of a 2000-metre-high mountain range in one of the world’s first private ski clubs in Lebanon, this garden is a
perfect example of the seamless extension of a home’s architecture and interior design into the landscape.

 

An exercise in serenity and simplicity, the garden was designed by landscape architect Vladimir Djurovic for Lebanese haute couture fashion designer Elie Saab, as a private weekend retreat and a venue for corporate events. We hope you enjoy reading about it as much as we enjoyed writing about it. What a garden!
