"It was the purpose of the project that immediately fascinated me," reveals landscaper Bia Abreu . When talking to Filipe Troncon, partner of Carolina Mauro, Daniela Frugiuele, about the LG Connected House , held in Praça Cidade de Milão, for Janelas CASACOR São Paulo Paulo , Bia was delighted with the proposal. "The idea of talking about plurality, diversity and connection came together with what I was feeling and thinking. I was very excited about the invitation and accepted promptly. I tried to adapt the concepts of the architectural project to the garden and I sought to create a true connection between people and nature " he adds.

"I tried to use the same species that exist in the park and at the same time bring in some of the diversity of nature, by choosing plants with beautiful and diverse designs and textures . And also, species that could attract birds to bring more life to the place," highlights Bia. . In an area of 150 square meters, the small enchanted forest was composed of species such as Philodendron (Philodendron hederaceum), Açaí (Euterpe oleracea), Adam's rib (Monstera deliciosa), Jabuticabeira (Myrciaria cauliflora), Jasmine-manga ( Plumeria rubra), Variegated Maranta (Ctenanthe oppenheimiana), Fan Palm (Licuala grandis). These are just some of the specimens that set the tone for the essence of the garden created by the landscaper, marked by the plurality of tropical species and characterized by a contemporary interpretation, modern and harmonious with the surroundings of the square. "We need to reflect on the moment and nature feeds and inspires us. With this garden, I sought to offer enchantment and well-being to a greater number of people," summarizes the landscaper.
