Home garden design
We create new landscaping and gardening projects, and we do renovations for villas, houses, hotels, public parks, etc.
The pillars of our creative process are the connection with the environment, environmental sustainability, the habitability of spaces, the balance between function and form, and space as an expressive resource. We seek to create places capable of offering multiple layers of meaning. Gardens with the capacity to offer an emotional experience of space.
Gardens have countless faces.
Maybe you prefer the garden to meet with friends, or to have an amazing time with the family helping your child with his first steps.
Perhaps, the most important is to meet your family in your retirement time and enjoy a glass of wine under the stars in lively conversation.
Perhaps you prefer to meditate alone, walking barefoot in the grass, picking fruit from the tree and tending your own orchard.
The gardens have countless faces of course, and we can help you even if what you prefer is just a decorative space.

People from different cultures
Garden design and landscape architecture studio
Marbella, Sotogrande, and the Costa del Sol are a large multicultural territory where there are different landscaping and gardening needs.
As garden design and landscape architecture studio in Marbella, our proposals are very diverse, sometimes they are linked to the exotic image of the palm tree, the garden of shade and water, the oasis within the urban. Other times we design a reflection of current architecture: straight lines and geometric elements, very clean forms and concepts. Other times our designs are adapted to a more personal architecture.
In other landscape projects we have worked with cultural or historical references to other types of gardens. We have also made gardens that are part of a narrative concept, the image of a product on display, or a reiterative form of targeted communication.
Scenarios necessary for certain public spaces, and where the design must be fully consistent with the activity that takes place.
In apddesign we are interested in artistic research, and we think about the need and responsibility that we landscape designers have in making gardens be seen as works of art. The garden understood as an aesthetic experience, an artistic installation or as a sculptural space, as it is already done in other parts of the world. And much more.
