Brazil
landscape project
Gardens, courtyards, scents, sounds, indoor-outdoor spaces, lights, shadows and water always present as a guiding thread. A landscape project closely connected with the landscape scenery of Rio de Janeiro, the native coastal vegetation and, especially, with the Itapuã Stone, a natural landmark that rises sixteen meters above the sea.
The project proposes to connect the natural coastal landscape that surrounds it with the pedestrian promenade along the coast, through a system of internal paths that unites spaces of meditation, consciousness and contemplation. A journey through different gardens, and natural spaces where water flows, bringing the liquid element to the place manifested in fountains, ponds and pools, as well as the irrigation system.
