POESAGES
landscape in its own right
POESAGES is Guillaume Ciletti’s build practice: an experienced landscape contractor able to carry a project from the first stake to the last planting, across Savoie and the surrounding valleys.
It is not an annex to the architecture studio: it is the trade the studio came from. Soils, water and plants were learned there, on site, long before they became a way of designing buildings.
Landscape first
What landscape changes in a building project
The ground
A site is read before it is cut: its slope, its nature, what it holds and what it lets through. That reading avoids remedial structures that often cost more than the earthworks themselves.
Water
Where it arrives, where it sits, where it leaves. Settled at masterplan stage, it costs nothing. Settled after handover, it becomes a building site.
Time
A building is handed over finished; a garden is handed over begun. Designing both together means accepting that half the project keeps moving, and planning for that movement.
Two entities, two trades
Design, landscape and architectural alike, is practised within LIBER.ARCHI, an architecture company registered with the French Ordre des architectes. POESAGES does not practise architecture: it builds and runs the works. One point of contact, two distinct frameworks: this is what allows a project to be led as a whole without blurring responsibilities.
Gardens, terraces and outdoor works are delivered by POESAGES.
