Another notable creation is "Het Groene Koningins Kabinet" featured in the esteemed book "Tooneel Der Voornaamste Nederlands Huizen. " The Green Queen's Cabinet transports viewers into a world of regal elegance and opulence. Allard's artistry extends beyond buildings; he also designed breathtaking gardens like "De Koninginne Tuin met t Groene Kabinet en de Oranjerie. " These meticulously crafted landscapes are a testament to his ability to harmonize nature with architectural elements. Among his many achievements, Allard was commissioned by Louis XIV himself. The king recognized Allard's talent and entrusted him with creating awe-inspiring structures that would stand as testaments to grandeur for generations to come. Some of these remarkable creations include "t Huys te Goudesteyn tot Maerseveen, " located within the pages of "Tooneel Der Voornaamste Nederlands Huizen.

Similarly, "t Huys te Nieweroden" stands proudly along the Vecht river—a true gem among Dutch houses. Other notable landmarks attributed to Allard include "t Huys Weeresteyn, " nestled gracefully by the river Vecht; "t Moolentye, " which graces Den Amstel; and finally, both Den Omval and Nieuwe Zydts Capel—testimonies to his versatility as an artist.
