Olivier Delahousse and Anne Laudouar are the creators of the Jardins de Lumière project. Olivier is an engineer and scenographer in the events and entertainment sector. A DIY enthusiast and artist at heart, he is a true jack-of-all-trades, passionate about video mapping, self-construction and nature. Anne is an independent photographer, she loves cooking and capturing the beauty of nature and people through the lens. Their preferred medium is therefore light: one projects it, the other captures it. The Jardins de Lumière is above all a love story and a life project. In 2019, they were lucky enough to come across an atypical building, in a magnificent corner of nature in Floressas. After five years of work, redevelopment and rebound, they wanted to open the place and share their experience in the fields of arts, permaculture and resilience through food autonomy and self-construction. Together, they want to make the Gardens of Light a place of meeting, learning, creativity and renewal.
