Why Lyon apartments need tailored plant styling
Lyon’s stone façades and deep window recesses create microclimates that generic plant lists ignore. Morning glare on Rue de la République differs from the cool north light behind Croix-Rousse shutters. We read orientation, radiator placement, and balcony depth before recommending a single stem. The result is greenery that holds through winter heating and summer courtyard heat rather than fading after the first month.
Our work sits between interior design and horticulture: vessel selection, foliage layering, and maintenance calendars written for real households — not greenhouse showrooms.
Services that fit apartment life
- Indoor plant compositions for living rooms, kitchens, and bedroom corners with limited floor space.
- Window gardens sized to sill depth and shutter swing on Presqu'île façades.
- Courtyard greenery for shared and private courts in Lyon’s îlots.
- Dried botanicals for rooms where watering access or humidity is constrained.
- Seasonal arrangements that refresh the same vessels through the year.
How a typical project unfolds
You send photos, floor notes, and light observations. We propose a botanical plan with plant counts, vessel sizes in centimetres, and a care sheet in English or French. Install happens on a single visit when possible; for courtyards we may stage in two passes so soil and climbers settle. Full detail lives on our process page.
Transparent pricing in euros
Studio fees start from €180 for a focused window package and scale to multi-room and courtyard programmes. Materials are quoted separately in EUR with receipts from our Lyon suppliers. See current ranges on pricing.

Neighbourhood notes
We keep a working map of buildings we know well: Haussmann blocks near Bellecour with tall ceilings and low humidity; Croix-Rousse canuts flats with steep stairs and bright ateliers; Saône-facing rooms that need shade-tolerant foliage. Mention your arrondissement when you write — it shortens the first proposal.
