NATURE at the heart of our work.
HORUS Paysages sets out to draw the line that links you to nature: your garden.
Our pillars
NATURE as a model
HORUS Paysages is a passion for nature: wild, untouched nature, refined with sensitivity into a paradise of your own, a place to live. Stanislas draws on the natural ecosystems he meets during his "immersions" to compose his gardens.
TECHNIQUE
At HORUS Paysages we pay close attention to the technical side of a project. Our network of craftspeople lets us test and sharpen our ideas so that the design becomes reality without losing quality. This dialogue, and the constant questioning that comes with it, runs from the first sketch to the end of the works.
Rigour and organisation
Imagining a project is one thing; building it is another. Working with living things means letting go of what nature decides, but it does not rule out precise organisation and follow-up. So that every problem has its solution, we plan with schedules, we record with minutes and we settle things with contracts. A framework, a problem, a solution.
DRAWING as structure
Botany and ecology are essential, but we never forget the importance of the line. Our feeling for design, architecture and art feeds our thinking. For HORUS Paysages, the garden is the interface between "the wild" and "the built". It is this blending, through drawing, that gives rise to an ecosystem 2.0 and makes your home unique.
How HORUS began
HORUS Paysages
2017 With his DPLG landscape design degree in hand, Stanislas chose to go freelance. He learnt the trade as a labourer on building sites by day, and as a designer for design offices in the evenings and at night.
2019 One wish: independence. But with no money behind it, HORUS was only a logo and an ambition.
2020 Through chance meetings and a few projects under his own name, Stanislas set up as a sole trader. It was also the year of his first office, shared with a partner and landscape contractor.
2021 With more and more contracts signed, HORUS Paysages could truly be born as a company. Partnerships grew, projects and design competitions followed one another.
2022 As the business grew, Stanislas began to build a team. Claire-Marie Lecharny, his wife, joined the company to take charge of its administration and of site follow-up.
2024 Claire-Marie's growing role made it possible to develop the sourcing service: a made-to-measure service for private clients and for professionals.
FROM THE GARDEN TO THE WILD
It all began long before HORUS Paysages.
A passion for nature born in Lorraine, in his parents' garden. As a child, Stanislas spent every free moment there watching plants and wildlife. As a teenager, he went out botanising and photographing birds on the nearby ponds.
That curiosity, and his love of drawing and nature, led him to study architecture and landscape in Versailles. Needing freedom, he discovered a passion for survival in the wild, always pushing his limits further: Mongolia, Lapland, Iceland.
For more than ten years now, Stanislas has built his life around his passions for art and survival. When he is not at his desk drawing, or in an auction room hunting for a fashion sketch, he leaves everything behind. Alone, with a tarp, a pack and rations. Outside time, he takes the time to watch nature and understand it, fully immersed. These long walks, between survival and natural history, shape the DNA of every HORUS Paysages project.
HORUS, A FAMILY STORY
STANISLAS and CLAIRE-MARIE
After the first years spent building HORUS alone, Stanislas asked his wife Claire-Marie to join him. Alongside the original landscape design practice led by Stanislas, a second activity was born: sourcing exceptional plants, run by Claire-Marie. HORUS became a family story.
Claire-Marie LECHARNY
administration and sourcing
At HORUS, Claire-Marie brings her talent for organisation and natural rigour to the administrative follow-up and control of the company's activities.
From every administrative aspect of site supervision to the follow-up of sourcing orders and internal management, nothing is left to chance.
Claire-Marie is also your main contact for the sourcing service, from defining your needs to following your orders, including liaison with the nurseries.
Stanislas JUNG
state-qualified landscape designer (DPLG)
At HORUS, Stanislas brings his creativity and his knowledge of botany and technique to your landscape projects. From drawing your plans to tendering and site supervision, nothing is left to chance. Stanislas also puts his knowledge of plants to work for the sourcing service.

What is a DPLG landscape designer?
DPLG stands for Diplômé Par Le Gouvernement, a government-awarded qualification.
In France, the title of DPLG landscape designer is awarded by only four schools, the Écoles nationales supérieures de paysage, after six years of study: a guarantee of quality.
