Description

Near Paris, we are building a widespan greenhouse for the Musée National d'Histoire Naturelle. These greenhouses are part of the Chèvreloup Arboretum and house an exceptional collection of fuchsias and pelargoniums. Managed by the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle (MNHN) and maintained by the arboretum's gardeners, this collection has expanded and evolved over the years.

The greenhouse is part of the publicly accessible section of the park, prompting the client to go further in terms of aesthetics and finishing than a traditional cultivation greenhouse.

The new construction is equipped with advanced techniques to create an optimal growth environment:

  • Climate control : For regulating temperature and humidity. This system contributes to sustainability by minimizing energy consumption.
  • Electricity : Designed with great attention to energy efficiency.
  • Lighting system: Specially designed to optimize photosynthesis, considering the needs of fuchsias.
  • Screening : For filtering sunlight and protecting the plants from various weather conditions.
  • HVAC : To maintain a constant temperature.
  • Water installation: For efficient irrigation and misting systems.

The greenhouse will meet all requirements and will be connected to the existing installations nearby, including a heat network and electrical networks.

This project not only creates a beautiful space for the public but also offers a technologically advanced environment for these beautiful plants.
