| Abstract:
An insight into a specific style of work and an individual company shows how teamwork, internal communication and an open atmosphere achieve optimum results in complex urban landscape projects. Three projects demonstrate how specific plants placed in urban surroundings change our perception and are indispensable for identification: An artificial image of a natural landscape transforms an inner courtyard of a commercial building into an urban reed landscape. A single tree species becomes an “image carrier” during the process of planning of a large industrial estate. Three carefully chosen, different trees turn a garage forecourt into a multifunctional and attractive garden courtyard. | |
