Albufeira
a botanic haven
The house of a former scupltor with a botanist in the family creates the tale of departure in this garden for a touristic property in Albufeira. Besides some outdoor paths and benches sculpted in traditional gres de silves, the property has some incredible pre-existing plants. The concept was the deloped having these existing elements together with the intention of showing the true Algarve to the visitors.
The main views and paths informed the proposed structure for the whole masterplan. The garden will have a Cacteraie, a Palmeraie, mixed hedges with mediterranean plants, an Algarvian orchard with olives, oranges, almonds, carobs and figs , a small vegetable garden and a multipurpose meadow.
