A unique personality
for your project
Each piece of land has its own personality; every handful of square meters is a reinterpretation. Every stone found there reveals something about the nature of the soil and its underlying structure; and the plants that grow, whether native or imported, reflect the botanical chemistry of the place.

XEROGARDENING & MEDITERRANEAN
“Xeriscape” is a concept from California (USA) focused on the sustainable use of plant species adapted to the Mediterranean climate, along with design approaches that aim to reduce water use and maintenance.
The Mediterranean offers us light, colors, and textures that we blend harmoniously to bring a sense of calm and a bucolic character to the garden.
HISTORY AND HARMONY
From the Renaissance, we learn to create parterres with Myrtus communis, to manage water, and to resolve the slopes of Tuscany. From French Realism, the use of goose-foot paths becomes significant, along with pruning techniques already mastered through topiary. The gentle forms of English landscaping also inspire us, as does the grouping of species into masses.
Church, Burle Marx, Jellicoe, Page, Rubió i Tudurí — this rich heritage provides a solid foundation for taking initiative, studying, and applying modern systems in harmony with traditional practices.
THE SPECIES
With knowledge of over a thousand different species, we choose plants based on where they will be planted — considering the climate, the space, or their intended use. We always propose species that harmonize with the immediate surroundings.
THE COLORS
They attract us and invite us to explore the garden. Greens, ochres, reds, blues, and yellows — all can be used and even made seasonal. The combination of paving, textures, and plant species brings the space to life and gives it chromatic strength.
THE SOUND
The sound of wind and water — both are essential elements. Water brings magic, adding remarkable value to the garden by incorporating sound as a relaxing and pleasurable feature. With the wind, certain species become sonorous, and we use them to enhance the sensory experience. The right use and the chosen species allow us to enjoy and give the garden its unique character.
THE SURROUNDINGS
Integrating the surroundings into the project — and vice versa — is essential and elevates the garden as a whole. A project like this becomes exclusive and unmatched due to its connection with the surrounding space.
Personality enhances and amplifies the character of the garden, creating meaningful ties with its environment and turning your garden into a truly unique and unrepeatable space.
