ALBERT KHAN GARDEN

During his visit to Japan in 1908, the banker and philanthropist A.Kahn was fascinated by the traditional culture of the country. On his return to France, he set up a Japanese garden in his residence. Japanese carpenters and gardeners were brought in at the time to build the pavilions and to supervise the landscaping work.
During the restoration of the two pavilions in 2016, we supervised the work, translated and coordinated weekly meetings with the local architect, the Japanese and French carpenters (in charge of dismantling and assembling the structure), the construction companies (in charge of the foundations and the exterior fittings), as well as the research team on art history and archaeology of the Sorbonne University.
We also contributed to the transport of materials, special paint and tools from Japan.
