SUSTAINABILITY

The right plant for the right place!

Since we are carrying out projects in Greece, we are dedicated to the principles of the Mediterranean Garden. The choice of hardy plants and how they are grouped together in the landscape is based on the positive synergy between them, their low demand of water and nutritional elements, and the microclimate. Thus, the plants are healthy and robust requiring the minimum maintenance.

Not even one drop of water lost!

We are obsessed with water management. We group plants according to their common needs in watering. We use cutting-edge technology in the water supply network. We propose and apply many ways to take advantage of the water resources that would otherwise be lost if we don't use them. These are a) rain water from rooftops and yards and b) the so-called "grey waters" which refere to water disposed from washing machines, wash basins showers, which we can filter with natural processes and use them for the watering of the garden. Water is PRECIOUS!

Ecology, Recycling, Energy

We use the greenery in a garden’s microenvironment with the aim of creating a self-contained, sustainable ecosystem, which will improve the building aesthetically and energywise. Common practices are the planting of deciduous trees around the building, as well as Green roofs. Apart from the aesthetic value that their seasonal changes offer, deciduous tree shade a building during the summer and allow the sun to heat the building during winter, which is of great benefit energywise for a building and economical for its owner. The leaves that fall in the winter are an excellent raw material for compost, which will fertilise our plants for the next germination period.
