The Winter Garden of the Chateau is Ready. Plants, Furniture, Decoration, Restoration...
In this episode, we take a detailed look at the Winter Garden of Chateau de Dampierre, which has been fully restored and is now ready for enjoyment.
I will walk you through it, explaining the thought process behind its design, the selection of plants, and the decisions made to ensure the space offers both comfort and elegance.
Join me as we examine how the integration of natural elements contributes to the functionality and aesthetic appeal of this Winter Garden.

The Orangery has turned out nicer than my home. Please keep posting as your progress through the chateau.
It gives me so much joy to see young adults who love and appreciate a garden
Handsome doctor and adorable plant specialist. Great video.
I can only imagine the fun you are having sourcing the delights for your winter garden. The result is magnificent . I would not change one thing, I love it all.
You have such refined taste and such a good eye for design. A little paradise!
Every finished project you show us gets more and more beautiful . I can only imagine what the finished chateau will look like. You definitely have a eye for details . Best of luck on future projects !
You have such elegant taste. It's a gift, and it makes opening one of your videos a much anticipated treat.
I love everything……leave the statue without the head. The planters are splendid. Merci from California.
A beautiful couple with amazing taste!
Apparently this is not his partner.
The winter garden is exquisite! You have very nice taste! Congratulations, You are doing a wonderful job of restoring the chateau and her out buildings.
Yes, indeed, it is exquisite. The only thing I would add, however, is COLOR! One can accomplish that with jewel-tone rich fabrics or showy flowers. Winter can be cold, dark, and long and indoor flowers can bring a pop of color, joy, and hope in the bleak mid-winter. The gardener is familiar with "forcing bulbs" no doubt. My favorite indoor bulbs are Hyacinths which come in bright pinks and purple/violet & various other colors, and also smell wonderful. Red or deep pink & white variegated Amaryllis is lovely for Christmas, and yellow & white daffodils are always cheerful & make me think of sunshine (I think Europeans call them Narcissus). I think one can force most Lillys (my favorite are the pink & white Tiger Lillys), but I'm not sure about Tulips. When they're spent they can all be planted in the ground in spring. These, or other bright flowers would look lovely in their little glass bulb-vases used for forcing... or placed/nested in a long narrow brass container on the dining room table as a perfect centerpiece. A glass-top dining table would open up the space a lot and make the room more spacious-looking. Maybe a few cane chairs made in the Orient (antiques?) would complement the tableware/cutlery. Maybe a couple of bright pink (or his favorite shade) Rose bushes trained to be "trees" would add some color too and a more subtle scent to the room. Large-bloom orchids come in every color too (purple and pink-violet are my favorite), African violets are easy, pink Cyclamen is lovely, and Desert-Rose too. Red Anthurium looks tropical but is also perfect for Christmas, as is red Gloxinia. Indoor Azaeleas are gorgeous with dense blossoms and come in many colors. Jasmine smells lovely. Chrysanthemums/Mums and Begonias and Pansies are cold-hardy and would do well on the window sills... as would the herb Rosemary which would make the room smell lovely and fresh and could be used for culinary uses. Perhaps his gardener already has some of these and other ideas... but that is just the shortlist! 😊☺😂😘
I'm saving your repley for my outdoor garden here in ghe US Midwest...near Chicago. Thank you.
Beautiful and interesting. Thank you for the closed captions and the text graphics for brand and plant names.
Truly beautiful.
Wonderful visit and video. This is a magical place. The first time I encountered Sabre's bamboo table cutlery was at a dinner in late 1972 in San Francisco. The host--who would become a life long friend, was the ultimate in chic and style. A tall rugged man 14 years my senior, he cut quite a path thru the San Francisco social scene and art world and later moved to Beverly Hills where he flourished in the design and architectural restoration community. Ironically, just last night I learned he passed away at the stylish age of 85. It warmed my heart to see that tradition carried forward by you. Merci!
Once again, you have done a fantastic job. It is just stunning! Your exquisite taste shines again! Beautifully done!
It's unbelievably beautiful and astounding amount of work and care. Thank you for doing this and demonstrating it to us!
Thank you for including us in your remarkable project. Calamondin orange is a prolific producer of tiny fruit used for juice, syrup and preserves and has a wonderful scent as do Meyer lemon.
Absolutely beautiful! I wouldn’t change a thing! You should be very proud of the restoration! ❤️😊
A very warm hello from Atlanta! Thank you for continuing to take us on this journey with you. Bonne journée!
I really like the green color you painted everything. I also like those trees in the planters 🙂
You have such potential to create your own weekly show. You have all the qualities necessary , passion , curiosity, the way you articulate and interaction with the audience, the attention to detail… each thing you touch and describe is like talking about delicious decadent food. And so.. you can make lots of money and renovate this estate to an archeological masterpiece. 🙏🎉🎉🙏. I could go on and on but I’ll end with, your channel takes me away from the awful state of our world
You have such great taste. It's so nice to watch a chateau transformation where they aren't installing Ikea kitchens.
J'ai beaucoup apprécié. Vous parlé tous les deux avec amour de ce jardin d'hiver et de ces magnifiques plantes.Merci
Fantastic work! Each new video is a delight
Turn the small table 90° around so both sitters can share the same vision from the ambient and receive the same amount of heat from the fireplace.
Thank you for living the links to your sources. Love that orange tree containers.
Can’t wait to see all the final finishes. The table linens with place settings, along with any additional books and other pops of color to bring it all to final living space for your first garden party. Congrats.
Un rincón con todo lujo de detalles, sólo una palabra, oasis. Os recamiendo un arbusto llamado, galan de noche tambien conocido como, la dama de noche, tiene este nombre por soltar su aroma cuando anochece, lo oleran desde París. Hace poquísimo que os sigo y veo que no sois unos estirados, estáis cumpliendo vuestro sueño con mucha ilusión gracias por hacernos partícipes de esta aventura que el resto de la humanidad, sólo lo soñamos. Os tengo una envidia sana pero disfruto de vuestra pasión por que la transmitís. Os deseo que podáis acabar pronto para disfrutar de este maravilloso castillo. desde Barcelona.
I love your enthusiasm and your attention to detail,and remember you can never please everyone as long as you enjoy what you do That’s the most important thing.
Looks wonderful. And the two topiary at the front look perfect not too big.
yes! I think they're perfect too!
Me 3! Perfect!
But hiding the lighting lanterns behind it :-(
@@ChateaudeDampierre ahhhh…. Ok!! Gotya! 🤗
@@ChateaudeDampierre that’s disappointing
Hi doctor! I thought we’d not hear from you again. Everything is looking wonderful!
It’s gorgeous! You all should be very proud of all of the work that went in to the building.
you had excellent vision to restore this beautiful winter garden ❤
Everything looks beautiful. I hope you enjoy it this Winter. Mabey you could put a Christmas tree in there this holiday season, that would look really pretty. I am looking forward to more of your videos. Jeff❤
Exactly !
Beautiful ! Very Charming space. The trellis work on the walls is a wonderful green color. A Great space for a party or a dinner party. Your planters at entrance would look good each with a large boxwood in a round shape. You continue to show your excellent sense of design and decor. Thanks for your videos!
Thank you for the update! I truly enjoyed learning about the plants and their containers. I look forward to hearing about the progress of the beautiful orchids and the orange tree, too.
Very interesting video. Nice to meet you Dan. Learned alot about those plants 🪴. Everything looks beautiful. Impeccable taste!! Yes, keep the head off the statue. Looks more mysterious..
Or actually get a Venus de Milo or some other Greek goddess for the Orangery/Garden House and put the statue of Mary (with her head intact) in the chapel... I think he has a chapel... or perhaps that is another chateau I'm thinking of. After all, she is a one-of-a-kind priceless artifact of the Medieval French period. It would be a shame to 'de-face' her! 🤔
Just that I bought it without head, and though it was not a religious statue. and like it like that. , and the antic shop called me 1 month later To tell me they found a head that might be my sculpture one ! But meanwhile I git used to the beheaded one. And I didn’t want any religious sign in the first place. So I only decided not to fix it 😉
looks beautiful. Hope to see a new video soon
When you buy plants in the colder season, they react to the temperature difference between the store and outside. Make sure you cover them with a towel or bag on the way to the car and to the house. It helps prevent them going into shock.
Your Winter Garden will bring you and your friends a tremendous amount of continuous joy! It is very beautiful, well done to you, Daan and all that has had a hand in its creation.
What a treat to see your creations. The taste level is 5 star! Love the oversized trees outside.
Looks fantastic! Thoughtfully placed plants and the interior finishes are lovely! Your attention to detail is lovely. Thanks for sharing!
So beautiful. I love your creative vision. Keep the videos coming, please. 👍
Absolutely beautiful ❤ Table needs a truly magnificent pair of candelabras.😊
Magnificent! What an incredible winter escape, full of beautiful fixtures and exquisite plants. Thanks for continuing to share your exciting journey 😀
The Winter Garden is very well put together. The plants and furnishings are not overdone and very tasteful. Bien joue! Ralph Rocchiccioli
Fabulous! So much thought into every detail, and the result is perfect.
Smashed the like button. Remember no signing contracts the SAME DAY as the meeting initially. Are you going to have a Holiday Trim a Home?
Ue fois encore le résultat est superbe et parfaitement dans l'esprit Grand siècle. Quel plaisir de voir évoluer le domaine sous différents aspects et toujours dans le respect de la tradition sans renier modernité et dynamique. Quel bonheur de voir votre passion et de vous écouter. Merci pour votre engagement.
It's 5am in Melbourne Australia, so excited to see another video.
Dr. You are such a charismatic motivational person I Thank You for these excellent videos & updates The best wishes and karma for your project and The Team behind the restoration
Fantastic! what a beautiful space you have created. Looking forward to following along for more.
J’ai hâte de suivre l’avancée du projet ! J’ai beaucoup apprécié le point sur les plantes avec Daan, très intéressant. Merci de partager cette rénovation ❤
So beautiful. Just amazing. Glad you are back I thought maybe you left us
Absolutely beautiful. I love it all 💚
I neglected to mention that I am a interior designer. I work mainly with builders staging their models. I pick all the interior and exterior finishes along with furniture, window treatments, accessories and art. I enjoy it very much which in watching you I can say the same is true of you as well.
What a stunning space you have created ❤
Oh shit yeah! ❤
Incredibly beautiful! And your attention to detail is amazing.. j'adore
very nicely done, nice progress all looks beautiful and interesting; the plants, the furniture..... and Daan 🙂
Just lovely! It is a perfect homage to Versailles
Приятно следить за преображением замка.
Delightful space, decoration and plants!
So much to take in and enjoy in this video. Your keen attention to every detail is impressive, starting with the height of the laurels in the caisses à orangers. Yes, lower height of the laurels will give a more pleasing scale to accent the façade. Further thoughts: On the stone buffet table top perhaps consider placing a small statue of Cupid or Bacchus to bring in a playful yet understated focal point amidst the greenery. On the dining table itself, with your choice of the tablecloth, add a low, round, glazed pot with low growing, flowering plants for a discreet touch of color. I love the bamboo cutlery. To “warm” the fireplace, use wood or realistic faux logs to bring up thoughts of a cozy fireside setting. The nearby black wrought iron bench will be perfect with its new, inviting cushion and spot of color. For the Mathieu Lustrerie pair of extraordinary chairs you might consider matching seat cushions for reading and teatime comfort. There you see, nothing too overwhelming in my modest suggestions! Certainly not least, I really enjoyed Daan’s detailed chat about the various greenery and soon to flower plants.
Thanks 😉
J'aime suivre l'avancement de la rénovation. Nous avons terminé la rénovation de notre appartement cette année, mais cela n'avait rien à voir avec la construction d'un château entier. Quelle surprise d'apprendre que nous sommes voisins au 9ème ! Je passe devant les deux magasins de la rue Henry Monnier et de la rue Victor Massé après mon café du matin à La Compagnie du Café et en allant chercher du pain chez Mamiche.
Beautiful design choices!
Sensational! Absolutely superb taste! Love your vedios! ❤
Beautiful for sharing from Sussex, England.
Wow, a really cool and relaxing space! 👌
Je trouve qu’une orchidée sabot de venus irait bien dans cette pièce ! En tout cas c’est magnifique 😍
Beautiful! Nicely done!
BEST WISHES TO YOU
Looks perfect just the way it is 😀
Daan is gorgeous!
Looks beautiful!
It's beautiful. Lovely. Understated buy classy and so relaxing. Great choices. Love your slacks with the shoes. Be careful not to overwork yourself--holidays are just around the corner.
The winter garden looks stunning. Love all the plants and I can't wait to see the progress with the gorgeous orchids. Thank you so much for sharing.
It looks beautiful! I really like your sense of style!
Lovely…
Lovely space! I would be tempted to add maybe one overstuffed chair or maybe a couple more cushions for the Italian bench. The lines of that bench are very sleek and elegant. Beautiful plant selections, I hope they flourish!
STUNNING! As usual!
Oh, Mon Dieu. Superbe. I hope that you will put some volumes of gardening or horticultural books on the shelves flanking the fireplace. (J'espère que vous placerez quelques volumes de livres de jardinage ou d'horticulture sur les étagères flanquant la cheminée).
Well lovely done. I love that metal palm tree!
Wonderful job!🎉
So enchanting!
Looks wonderful. One, only one (ha ha) suggestion, the white tablecloth is too stark and formal. Needs to be maybe something with a tiny foliage print or a more natural color. P.s. who beheaded Mary?😂
Lovely!!!
Love!
Finally!!!! Can't wait to see the video entirely!!
lively!
Love your attention to detail.
You have such a passion to achieve perfection. May I suggest some large stag and elk horn ferns mounted on natural tree slabs and hung on side walls in corners, also some large fern hanging baskets. variegated ficus, the more natural light they receive, the more colour they produce. If you don’t mind me saying, that a velvet table cloth may look to heavy and formal in that room and for your cutlery, my thought would be something fresh and light weight with the same green as in your chair upholstery, or even the same fabric if it’s is light weight, washable and better still none iron easy care. Congratulations on your beautiful garden room. From Australia
I have been waiting for this so exciting!
Anthony it looks great, your plant guy is passionate about the plants & it shows! That vanilla plant would never get pods at my home to much labor, haha! Cheers Kirk
Je trouve l'organisation parfaite. J'adore votre jeu avec tous les éléments et votre réflexion pour qu'ils s'entendent. Bravo aussi pour vos choix. Toujours le meilleur dans les meilleures marques possibles. Concernant l'étoffe de Soane, je vais faire mon pédant. C'est un motif qui date des années 1830-40. Il était produit en France également pour l'habillement essentiellement. Ici il a été largement agrandi. Ces étoffes étaient imprimées à l'aide d'un rouleau appelé molette et produit en camaïeux de noir, rouge et vert. Les motifs étaient souvent très abstraits et proches du cinétisme. La technique servait beaucoup pour l'imitation des soies moirées. Encore bravo.
Bon ben voilà ! C est français finalement ! On va encore passer pour Chauvin ! Haha
Very nice !!!!
Gorgeous
Très magnifique ! C'est superbe... Vous avez un vrai talent pour le design d'intérieurs et l'horticulture.
.... What a delight !! .... So gorgeous !! .... x
Thank you for sharing your beautiful vision.
