Architectural and landscaping project for a private garden

In a terraced land overlooking the sea, the project designs a series of overlapping floors created in relation to the wide panorama.

Various opportunities are thus created to stop and contemplate: the olive groves are planted with rustic and flowering species, the spaces are designed with large plantations of Mediterranean scrub, in order to frame the views and give protection from the strong differences in height created by the high walls of containment, thus allowing the elimination of otherwise necessary railings.

The various shaded areas are obtained with fig or olive trees, with the creation of vine pergolas and with the arrangement of mobile awnings, so as to cool different areas at various times of the day.

The need to limit the use of water, an increasingly current and important need, as well as to reduce maintenance, guided the choice to do without the lawn, replacing it with gravel in which the Mediterranean plants are directly planted.
