Who are we?

Our history

Léonard Sanchez was born in the Luberon in Roussillon, a remarkable village that is renowned worldwide for its natural ochres. From an early age, he immersed himself in the surrounding environment, observing, exploring and absorbing the characteristics of its rich Provençal heritage and unique architecture.

He participated from a young age in the family renovation business and learnt how to work with dry stone and natural materials like white lime and river sand.

Passionate about his work, he officially joined the company after completing his studies in 1988 and re-shaped the business in 1997.

With over 35 years’ experience, Léonard has benefitted from the advice of eminent architects, decorators and landscape gardeners and delivers top-of-the-range projects by ensuring that he is surrounded by the highest-skilled craftsmen.
A trusted professional and excellent communicator, he now delivers large-scale projects for an international clientele. He has been involved in the renovation, transformation and creation of farmhouses, country houses, villas, gardens, rustic properties and hotels and is always open to learning about new architectural projects.
The company is based in Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt in the Luberon, close to the picture-postcard villages of Bonnieux, Lacoste, Goult, Gordes, Murs, Saignon and others.

    Testimonials

    Mr. Sanchez offered creative and elegant solutions to renovate our Provençal home. His team demonstrated efficiency, punctuality, and expertise. We are thrilled with the final result.

    – M & Mrs Harris

    Our recently renovated home is a place where we truly feel at home, reflecting the unique spirit of Provence. We are deeply grateful to Léonard for bringing our dream home to life. We highly recommend him to anyone seeking a passionate architect.

    – M & Mrs. Wolkerdorfer

    Initially, the idea was to build a modest pool house. But when I met Léonard, the conversation quickly shifted toward a slightly more ambitious construction. I was immediately won over by his suggestions. This led to an impeccable and extremely positive relationship in every aspect: availability, punctuality, communication, project supervision, proposals, advice... There were never any surprises or questions about costs compared to the initial estimates. And, in the end, a superb result that fully met my expectations. I can only recommend Léonard and the entire Demeures Provençales team to anyone with a project in the region.

    – M. Chioua

    By proposing a smart design for our renovation, Léonard Sanchez helped us envision a layout for the house that was completely different from that of the previous owners. Thanks to their comprehensive expertise, Demeures Provençales managed the work efficiently and provided creative and original solutions whenever needed. Léonard and his team are friendly, approachable, and trustworthy partners.

    – M. & Mrs R

    We couldn’t recommend this team more highly to anyone who wants to renovate a Provençal home.
