Nãna Guimarães - Restoration of the Burle Marx Garden. Since the 2019 edition of CASACOR Minas, the landscaper has faced a challenge: restoring the gardens on the grounds of the Palácio das Mangabeiras. Designed by Roberto Burle Marx, they reflect the essence of the master, who promoted the appreciation of Brazilian flora to be admired and used with plants that were rarely found in gardens and squares in the country. The highlight of the work is the organization of the species, which allows us to see the beauty of each one with precision and respect. (Daniel Mansur/)
