20 days of silence!!!!!


Oh, my pooor, dear, beloved blog!!!!

So many ideas, so many news and events... and only a little time left to enjoy the pleasure to sit in front of the laptop and share with you part of this incredible journey!!!

The main reason of my momentary silence is a FABULOUS PROJECT!!!

We are  designing infact the garden for a very well know Hotel in London!!! I am really enjoying this wonderful opportunity and the uncontrollable flow of ideas that comes from it... but I have to admit that it is costing in terms of time and..sleep! ;)

Here some preparatory sketches and rendering trials:

{Margins of a CAD drawing are the perfect place
where improvise a mood board
and some early free-hand sketches!
}

{ First rendering studio with Pantone markers}




As usual, feel free to write me (I promise I will do my best to reply between a CAD session and a Watercolour one! ;P) and.... see you sooooon!

Events in September!

Woooow!!! How quick the time is rushing!!! It is flowing away between my fingers....but I take it as a  good sign since I strongly believe that 'Time is Faster in Happiest Times!' :D

I spent my last month between my working experience at Great Dixter and 'I Maestri del Paesaggio' in Italy,   now I am getting ready to start my last term at KLC School of Design, and working hard to hand all my summer homeworks: the Construction File (with my hard-landscaping choices regarded 4 different situations), a well worn and used Sketchbook with my daily exercises, my first 1:50 model (a little bit crazy, to be honest with you! ;P), and an article in the style of the Garden Illustrated's 'Montly Plants'. Plenty to keep me busy and away from writing and share as much as I would like (Ok, I do not do just homework!!! I also have a life and enjoy socialize, stay outside and...cooking!!! :D)

I know that there will be some time to wait before I could publish everything I would, but in the meanwhile I leave you with.....
