„Creating an artificial landscape does not mean denying nature“

90 looks, exceptionally once, for the 90th anniversary in a Roberto Burle Marx inspired garden.
The Brazilian landscape architect, plantsman and painter invented a new language for modern landscape design. He abandoned the tradition of the straight line and cultivated a passion for curved and sensual lines.
His work is, in the detail and as a whole, always one and the same. Inimitable!
