Atelier Anne Gardoni

What Atelier Anne Gardoni does

Atelier Anne Gardoni is a French landscape architecture and urban planning firm founded in 2005 by Anne Gardoni, an Architecte DPLG, Urbaniste and Paysagiste, and structured as a SARL (société à responsabilité limitée) de paysage et d'urbanisme with €5,000 registered capital. The firm operates two offices — the headquarters in Lyon (9th arrondissement, 60 Rue des 2 Amants) and a regional agency in Bordeaux (4 Rue Saint Nicolas, managed by Camille Beguerie since 2017) — with a small senior team of five named professionals (Anne Gardoni, Camille Beguerie, Renaud Ducher, Thomas Pourteyroux, Sonia Monnier) plus support staff. The firm serves primarily French public-sector clients — municipalities, metropolitan authorities, agglomeration communities, and social housing organisations — alongside selected healthcare and private real estate developers, executing four interconnected service lines: Équipements (public facilities landscape), Logement (residential developments), Parcs (parks and gardens), and Projets Urbains (urban requalification).

The firm's core offering is professional design and maîtrise d'oeuvre (master of work) services, delivered through project competitions, direct commissions, and multi-year public contracts. Projects range from approximately €450K to €27M HT in total budget, with the firm operating as either lead landscape architect on smaller works or specialised landscape consultant on larger integrated projects (e.g., a €1.2M landscape scope within the €27M Hôpital Nord-Ouest hospital extension at Villefranche-sur-Saône). Its documented technical and methodological differentiator is an "approche sensible et systémique" — a sensitive and systemic design philosophy that reads site topography, environment, and history to create dialogue between interior and exterior spaces, integrating themes of resilience, reversibility, renaturation, and biodiversity. There is no proprietary software, platform, or AI/ML component; the technology is human design expertise delivered through standard landscape architecture workflows.

Revenue is generated exclusively through professional services fees under maîtrise d'oeuvre contracts, with project-based (not publicly disclosed) pricing tied to the scope and complexity of each commission. The go-to-market is sales-led and competition-driven: the firm pursues public tenders and direct commissions from French municipalities, metropolitan authorities, housing organisations, and selected private clients, supported by a portfolio website and organic social presence (LinkedIn, Instagram) as top-of-funnel visibility. The firm is closely held, founder-managed, has no external investors, no subsidiaries, and operates entirely within the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Nouvelle-Aquitaine regions.
