Petit Trianon, Neoclassical pleasure house in Versailles, France
The Petit Trianon features four distinct facades, with the west side displaying Corinthian columns and terraces descending toward the garden.
Louis XV commissioned architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel to build this residence in 1762, which was later presented to Marie Antoinette by Louis XVI in 1774.
The palace interior integrates natural elements and floral patterns throughout its design, reflecting the connection between architecture and surrounding gardens.
The first floor reception rooms open directly to the gardens, while Marie Antoinette's private apartment overlooks the English Gardens and Love Monument.
The dining room contained plans for a mechanical table system in its foundation, though the mechanism was never fully implemented.
