Passionate Landscape Designer

As a landscape architect, design is my real passion as it’s the most important part of any project. Every project has its own spirit, and dedicated touch by picturing the project in my mind, firstly, in order to give every single part, of this project, its own identity and create different scenes and views associated to this part. I create nature by bringing it closer to people so they can interact with it, and most importantly be affected by it.

There are never any kind of borders between people and nature in my designs. The hardscape usage is quite minimal while the softscape is always the major part of the design. While considering codes and human comfort, the priority is to achieve the function of every space perfectly.

However, my ultimate objective is to create a connection between nature and people by smelling and hearing it. In our hectic lives, we are inclined to escape to nature every now and then. This shall be done using different plants with various textures, shapes, odors and colours while hearing nature sounds everywhere in water features, trees and birds.
