Post-classicism transition of Garden Design by LASD Studio
Philosophy of the design
Our idea is to free post-classical architecture of the house to transition towards modernism. In this way we will not have any concern, rules and fixed boundaries for the future of the site. Intention of the design is to give maximum freedom to the future unpredictability eclectic combination of different styles.
Our main principles for the design
A generation of landscape architects, environmental designers and ecologists have come together to create working principles that aim to create sustainable life on planet Earth.
Design with nature. This principle was first described by Ian McHarg, and has lately become recognized as key for ecological sustainability.
Evolutionary systems. Nature is a constantly evolving, never static ecological system with many interconnected processes.
Regeneration, and recovery of nature. We try to understand nature’s natural ecological processes and how to help it recover from the damage caused by humanity
Do no harm. All our materials and processes don’t harm nature, providing essential resources for future generations. Integrated system approach. We strive to create a balance between nature and humans as one united system.
A simple aesthetic. Nature is the inspiration for design aesthetic. Design will be natural, simple and sustainable.
