As a tile setter here in the USA, I really liked terracotta floors. Handmade French, squares and arrows "pickets) octogons and dots etc. To make them antique, using wood stains in greens, blacks and browns rubbed in by hand, before sealing tile gave it the two hundred year look. Also like you, i would pick any tile with paw or the mans print, and place in prominant spot. I said this is a wild animal or the print of the man who formed the tile.
You can now also get recycled terra cotta tiles from Eastern Europe. We got them from a San Francisco showroom a few years ago (before the city went bonkers) and used them in a patio project.
Books and humidity are a disaster waiting to happen. Not so sure making your winter garden with a library is a good plan. (I am a bibliophile) I like books more than people. Thank you for the video Have a great week!
You may have missed your calling to be a designer. You have wonderful taste & sense of balance & simmetry-:) Absolutely love your attention to detail. Fabulous!
Какая красота! Умели раньше вписать здание в ландшафт это шатле замок прекрасного принца. Принц трудолюбие, с хорошим вкусом. Пожелаем ему удачи преображении его замка.
Wow❤ the winter garden building is lovely. I love the lattice look, a nod to an outdoor garden space. If this is how the rest of the chateau renovations go ... wow! I can't wait to see more of this project.
Gorgeous, impecable taste. I would add from experience that your shelves see a bit thin for a lot of books but the trellis is wonderful and I can see that you are a reader of World of Interiors. I have been collecting that magazine since it came out.
Je suis vraiment impressionné et enthousiasmé par le soin et le respect de la substance historique qui est en cours de rénovation ici - le tout associé à un sens aigu du style et de la qualité authentiques. Antoni Calmon - un énorme coup de chance pour les bâtiments magnifiques et historiques !
Your bench in the greenhouse would be a great place for a large decorative urn . It could have large floral arrangement for events/parties. It also have large green or floral plant. Great space many possibilities.
Visite très agréable. Très impressionnant de voir l’évolution. J’ai trouvé par ailleurs très élégante la référence aux Cahen d’Anvers, famille malheureusement connue de peu. Merci à vous.
Absolutely stunning, what attention to detail you've done. If the rest of your renovations come close to this standard then your home will be exactly as your planned a dream retreat. 😁
the winter garden house is stunning. Cant wait to see it decorated and complete! Its stunning, the green colour on the paneling is perfect green, great job whit that!
It’s wonderful how much thought you are putting into this magnificent property. What you could do with that bench is used it as a side table and place an old garden statue or similar on it with a small stack of beautiful illustrated garden design books. An addition of a big comfy sofa would add extra seating and a warm, inviting and relaxed feel to the room. Sorry I can’t help myself, I have always had a passion for design. Best wishes from Australia
I think there are antique settees that were called conversation or "courting" settees where the chairs faced in opposite directions and the backs of the connected chairs formed and 'S'. I've seen ones done in cane which would match the garden theme and would be a charming addition to the room.
I absolutely love your taste in the things you are doing. We must have something in common! I was ready to begin building a winter garden onto my little cottage in Normandy when Covid then price increases hit like a train wreck. That put a stop to this dream for me but I can live my dream at least a little watching what you are doing on a much larger scale. I hope all works out for you and you don't lose your vision for your château. Bon courage pour la suite !
This winter garden room s absolutely beautiful....I love how you have done the flooring, lattice and the lovely chandelier. The colour is also amazing...so light and airy.
Everything looks so beautiful😊 when they made the tiles in the old days they were laid out on the ground to dry. And sometimes a dog or a cat or another animal stepping on them it’s so cute. Keep going you’re doing a great job.😅😊
For me it is in the details of the restoration and enhancements to the pavilions that add great interest and show how much careful thought you have given to every aspect of their design and finish. Bravo! Then there's an amusing historical note that tops if all off---the floor tiles' doggie footprint. Perfect, thanks to Rex, or maybe it was Mirza?
So absolutely charming 😊 nothing about renovations is perfect especially as the scale becomes grander at this scale take the wins and losses as they come as you said they are choices some you live with some have to be fixed. The journey and outcome so far are amazing!
Another beautifully done project. I love the trellis! It's not over done, but gentle and pleasing to the eye. So many people make it too busy, but this is done with a wonderful balance and restraint. Perfect! I love the lower section that looks a little like gingham. Again, every detail is perfect. I can't wait to see it finished with the plants inside. Thank you for letting us follow along. Your channel is my favorite as I feel like a kindred spirit in your design aesthetic. I wish you many happy years in your charming home.
What a beautiful and cozy room. Love the green which you picked. The furniture with the shells is incredible. Can't wait to see how the room progresses. Thank you so much for sharing.
What a charming gatehouse, (pavilion). Your decorative skills are amazing. I have subscribed and I’m anxious to see more of your great work. Watching from PA, USA.
Bonjour Monsieur, Tout d'abord bravo ! Enfin quelqu'un qui restaure un château avec goût et cherche aussi à en faire un lieu confortable et contemporain. Vous n'êtes pas nombreux dans ce cas sur UA-cam. Les débuts sont prometteurs. J'aime ces luminaires qui imitent la lumière des bougies. Et je vous envie pour ce merveilleux mobilier "aquatique". J'ai hâte de découvrir la suite. Jean PS : moi aussi j'adore la déco et suis un grand lecteur de revues sur ce sujet
Antoni it is again very beautifull what a taste and style.I like this very much and beautifull for plants. Thanks for to show us this beginning. I like it very much.Marveless!!🪴🪴
Quel rêve ce projet de restaurer ce château... Parfois, je me demande qui a pu être emporté par le plus grand enthousiasme, les personnes qui ont fait bâtir ces demeures, ou ceux qui se consacrent à leurs redonner vie de nos jours ? Peutêtre un lien d'amour de l'art les lie à travers le temps... C'est une idée merveilleuse et si charmante ce salon de treillage. Qui au sein de cette petite maison, est tellement dans le goût des fabriques à surprises du XVIIIème et de son art de vivre. A l'instar de la salle à manger d'été du Pavillon Frais de Trianon. En admirant ce ton de vert, je me demandais si les pilastres de maçonnerie, auraient pu aussi être peints de cette teinte, afin d'augmenter l'aspect architectural du salon de treillage. Associant l'antique au bucolique. Merci Monsieur de partager toutes ces étapes, c est bien plus euphorisant qu'une série ! 😊
It is good to make reference to the past but still be modern. I think you have made a great balance. Can I recommend the work of Jacques Wirtz? A very inspiring landscape designer.
He must have two to four large terra cotta pots in the four corners of the raised ceiling in the middle of the floor with ORANGE TREES!! ...or two orange trees and two lemon trees. Keep them trimmed and round in shape to frame the fountain! Also when he has guests ...if the pots are on wheels he can roll them to the four corners of the room. ~Tara *Kindlydude's wife)
It's magnificent! You did a lovely job with the trellis design. I've been thinking about doing something similar in my living room. I'm very curious about the lightbulbs you chose. I've been using the old fashioned candelabra bulbs but they're being phased out. Everything is on dimmer switches because I prefer soft lighting. Are your bulbs able to be dimmed?
Добрый день- я случайно нашла ваши все видео- подписалась и стала смотреть это очень красиво и маленький дом уютный оригинальный и посмотрю как там дальше будет устроен зимний сад ❤
Beautiful can I live in just this room full of plants? Library of plant books …check…. Lots of plants.. check… ambiance.. check. This sounds like my Heaven!
Hi you did a lot of great referencing to history for your gorgeous room love love well done you’re brilliant at decorating cant wait for all the rest you will accomplish with your Chateau. This a greenhouse from heaven in the 18 th century but better!! The furniture so far beautiful well done !! 🙏👏👏👏🇨🇦♥️♥️
This Garden house is SOOO CUTE !! I've been binge watching all your videos, 🙈 I just discovered your channel, BUT OMG !! I CANT TELL you enough how beautiful your home is .
"I find them very Cute." Haha. Love it.
That is probably the most beautiful greenhouse in France! The color you chose is perfect! Thank you for being so meticulous!
What a likable guy.
Congratulations the green colour perfect choice whole little house looks great & just love table & chairs …your sensitive style right for Chateau 🎉
His extremely high attention to detail makes him an excellent cosmetic surgeon I'm sure!

The greenhouse is fabulous. I can imagine all the plants on the shelves. It will be a nice place to relax, read books, and pot plants.
Books and humidity are a disaster waiting to happen.
Not so sure making your winter garden with a library is a good plan. (I am a bibliophile) I like books more than people.
Thank you for the video
Have a great week!
It's beautiful! I think the marble seat would make a wonderful table for plants.
This winter garden is exquisite…the affect of the whole decor is beautiful….small enough to be a space to spend quiet times..🌱🌿☀️🦠🌴
You may have missed your calling to be a designer. You have wonderful taste & sense of balance & simmetry-:) Absolutely love your attention to detail. Fabulous!

Está ficando maravilhoso seu trabalho, amo arquitetura mas com 80 anos não posso mais.
Love love the animal footprints ! How wonderful to have them !
Love the look of the little house and the green you picked !! Can't wait to see it with all the lovely plants you've picked.
Absolutely gorgeous, love the room too.
Превосходный вкус у Вас! Вы все доводить до совершенства! Успехов Вам в дальнейшей работе! Зелёный цвет просто изумительный...
You nailed the green! It’s perfect. And the floor tiles are almost creamy with soft colors, and calming for the mind.
I love your amazing details on the treillage! It's about small choices, how you cut the losanges on the sides, it is beautiful! Thank you for sharing
So appreciate your taking time to share with us your progress! Lovely!
Thank you Kelly!

The pavilion is gorgeous, and I love all that you are doing at the chateau.
Perfect space for a winter garden! Brilliant! I can see candlelit tables and cosy dinners! Cheers!

What a beautiful and cozy room. Love the green which you picked. The furniture with the shells is incredible. Can't wait to see how the room progresses. Thank you so much for sharing.
The furniture is totally charming ...to bad the faountain isn't a dolphin, or seashell or seahorse to match!
This man is absolutely gorgeous! Where has he been all my life. Oh yes, the chateau is beautiful as well.😍
What a charming gatehouse, (pavilion). Your decorative skills are amazing. I have subscribed and I’m anxious to see more of your great work. Watching from PA, USA.
It would be so cool to see footage of where and when you sourced the materials and furnishings!
Wonderful style and taste. I so enjoy your videos. Thank you and kind regards.
Thank you Michael! 🙏
The winter garden is lovely. The lattice in green is just beautiful. Can’t wait to see more of this great property

Thank you! Glad you like it! See you in the next one! You will see the other pavilion where I live when I’m at Dampierre and which I decorated 😊
I was "yes, agreed, yes, true, i like it too, ooo nice!, love the colour, so make sense, indeed!" all like that till it ended... 😂😂😂
Beyond super cute plants and books😊
I love how excited you got over being “a little thief” 😂
It’s looking great!
a great place for cozy romantic dinners.
It’s beautiful and the love that emerges from the attention to detail shines. Bravo! You embody the quintessential meaning of a passion project!

Cuanto me alegro de ver con la ilusión que está haciendo revivir su propiedad gracias por compartir me encanta
Well done! The footprints in the two tiles bring to life the fact the building is a place for living and not a museum piece.
I won't he surprised if your profession changes to designer! You are very very talented.
The little footprints are from a cat. Nice interior!! Congrats! 😺
It's magnificent! You did a lovely job with the trellis design. I've been thinking about doing something similar in my living room. I'm very curious about the lightbulbs you chose. I've been using the old fashioned candelabra bulbs but they're being phased out. Everything is on dimmer switches because I prefer soft lighting. Are your bulbs able to be dimmed?
It's coming together and you're very detailed oriented and it shows. It's exciting to see the progress 🙌. Aloha Kay

Beautiful. And your hair is lovely too.
So excited to see the greenhouse pavilion when it is fully decorated! So lovely!
Simply charming. It reminds me of Marie Antoinette's pavilion at the Petit Trianon.
Truly stunning, beautiful! I ❤️ watching your restoration. Thank you from Sussex in UK.
This man is beautiful ❤😮
This Garden house is SOOO CUTE !! I've been binge watching all your videos, 🙈 I just discovered your channel, BUT OMG !! I CANT TELL you enough how beautiful your home is .
