Valle Garden

I dwell among the mirrors of the sky, where water and light reflect the origin of life.

Project Description

The Valle Garden surrounds a modern home that initially lacked visual protection and connection to its surroundings. The brief was to create an Argentine lagoon landscape that combined natural elegance with comfort and functionality. This project transformed an isolated space into an oasis where nature flows freely, offering its inhabitants a relaxed, practical and visually stunning environment. With a design that balances architectural and natural elements, the garden becomes a reflection of the sky, inviting contemplation and tranquility.

The sounds of the garden
The garden whispers through the grasses swaying in the wind, with the song of marsh birds and the croaking of amphibians that inhabit the lagoons.

Design Concept and Philosophy

The design reflects on water as the vital axis of nature and its connection with the human body and cultural habits. This element guides 80% of the design, functioning both as a functional resource and as a symbol of origin and life. The collection of rainwater, reflected on laminated surfaces, projects a sublime light into the sky at sunset, evoking the eternal cycle of nature. The design flows naturally and casually, capturing the beauty of the everyday and celebrating local traditions. The result is a practical and deeply poetic space, where functionality meets reflection.

Garden Elements

The components of the Valle Garden have been designed to integrate nature, functionality and aesthetics, creating a space that balances serenity and versatility.

Entry

Slab squares and plant pots with olive trees and liquid amber, which soften the architecture with a fun and natural touch.

Pond

Functional axis that connects breakfast, chill out, games and lawn areas in perfect harmony.

Pool

It articulates uses in four areas: solarium, chill out, Argentinean barbecue and lawn.

Fencing

Charcoal gray metal sheets with climbing plants such as wisteria, creating an elegant and natural visual barrier.

Creation Process History

The creative process combined boldness and delicacy in the use of materials such as wood, wicker and stone, creating a space that invites emotional and sensory enjoyment. From benches and waterfalls to suspended furniture, every detail was designed to harmonize with functional and emotional needs.

The shallow water structure organizes the space, connecting play areas, relaxation rooms and a large Argentinean barbecue area. This fluid and organic approach turns the garden into a place that celebrates nature and everyday life.
