Garden of Clouds in Gard
Like a fingerprint in the landscape, the garden traces the productive fields with aromatic shrubs and flowers. A spiral path meanders through the endless garden, blending its cloudy volumes into the rural scenery of southern France.
At its peak sits the patio-house, out of earth-coloured stone walls and tiled roofs, marking the beginning of a colourful modulated topography.
Location: Gard, France
