The construction of a swimming pool is an opportunity to upgrade part of the existing garden. Wind, strong sunshine, a dry and steep terrain planted haphazardly with palms, yuccas, cordyline and fruit trees-these are the elements to be taken into account. With skill and care the transformation took place, a handkerchief of land capable of wonder, a puzzle of areas planted differently but always in tune with the lay of the land and the landscape around it that manages to match an interrupted and fascinating alternation of colors and play of shapes.
