Detail:
The cantilever structure necessitated 1 cubic metre concrete per leg pumped over, the house to maximise the 15.92 square metre rear space and allow accessibility. The holes in the roof initially were put in to reduce weight and allow the green roof take place, and the trees to distract from that calculation and the cinema to distract from that. The alley includes fold in chess board (medite tricoya) and games, hall of mirrors for varying heights, sensor lighting built into the fence for basketball playing and of course 99 red balloons (Hilti anchored). One of the tightest spaces I have ever designed. On a side note: This one of my project submissions for @societyofgardendesigners membership. Nice to see this covered in @sagaexceptional in their writings on shaded garden spaces.

At Jardí Botànic de Sóller @mucbosoller to meet

At Jardí Botànic de Sóller @mucbosoller to meet with Curator Magdalena Vicens and Daniel Gallego Morales Manager. Here, plant life (is so to speak) for the non botanical visiting out of season but, to understand beauty in nature, it’s important to appreciate how nature allows it to look when it’s not appreciated the most. Is that a good way to explain it ? Of note: The Botanical Garden of Sóller began in 1985 and was opened to the public in 1992 as a center for conservation, research and learning of the Mediterranean flora and especially the Balearic flora.
Thank you so much for your time, to talk with you through your wonderful collections and garden and your courtesy shown to me. My absolute honour to meet with you both. Look forward to our speaking soon,
Peter

In lieu of my seminar and guest lecture with the members and friends of the Ukrainian landscape professionals this, the giant squid/ Philippe Starck, Juicy Salif-esque 3.5 metre tall weather station is one part of the central courtyard school garden I designed.

The anemometer sits with the upper void of the head and connects to the science room, the rain gauge (black) attached to the outer.

Behind the daydreams a series of equations. Looking forward to meeting with you all tomorrow,
