BODENMANN
Two complementary personalities, driven by the same passion for the profession.
Both cultivate a highly developed artistic sense which pushes them to seek aesthetics, creativity, functionality, comfort and respect for nature in all their creations.
They met in 2004 within "Gilbert Henchoz Architectes Paysagistes". Their expertise and creativity have greatly contributed to the company's success. In 2011, they became associate directors. In 2021, buying the group was obvious:
A new vision filled with enthusiasm, driven by innovation, sustainability, excellence and pleasure.
This is how ARFOLIA was born.

Associate Administrator
Landscape Architect DPLG-SIA
Since joining the office in 2004, Raphaël has taken on many challenges, often complex, such as large-scale landscaping; urban rooms or private gardens. He was appointed co-manager of the French design office in 2009 and associate director of the Gilbert Henchoz group in 2011. In 2021, he bought the group with Franck, his partner, both of whom will give it a new dynamic under a new name: ARFOLIA.
His vision of landscape architecture: The landscape architect imagines, designs and designs the landscape of tomorrow. Let's create spaces where emotions, nature and sustainability combine!
His philosophy: Trust your instinct!
