TERRA VEIL

Concept
‍

We were aiming for an outdoor space full of personality, so we opted for a landscape of vibrant colors and layers of contrasting textures and species. With the soft touch of some flowers, we bring peace to this concept, and energy and vitality through berry-bearing plants and more robust shrubs. The perfect balance arises from the combination of all these elements - cleaner and more minimalist species alongside textured and eye-catching plants.

Moreover, certain species bring a subtle light and shine to the space through their bright leaves, compensating for the more velvety textures of plants like the White Cedar.

As you walk through the paths of this property, irresistible perfumes and a scent of honey linger in the air, pairing with the Japanese Maple and Californian Lilac bringing a final touch of elegance, delicacy, and beauty.
