Gardening 
Landscaping 
Agriculture 

Humans are an essential part of the ecosystem. In some cultures, nature is respected above all: they understand that taking care of their environment is preparing for the future.

 

For me, working with plants and living fully immersed in nature has always been a natural choice. Outdoor sports would not exist without trails and routes. The planning and management of spaces lie at the heart of our life and leisure experiences. Developing a territory for tourism means activating and structuring its spaces to reveal their full richness.
