This
garden illustrates the interaction between architecture and
landscape that characterises Monaco's spectacular scenery.
Monaco is a Mediterranean principality, highly populated,
rich in character and supportive of the arts and the
environment. The garden shows how landscape and architecture
can interact to provide sustainable solutions to support
high density living, including the use of vertical green
walls and planted roofs. The rear portion of the garden
contains a structure of varying heights that represents a
section of a high rise building. This area leads to a
courtyard with access to a small balcony above a
cantilevered planted roof, providing an area that is
protected from the sun’s rays.
