T

he idea for Smartgarden landscape design is the following:
This project offers a transparent platform for the garden. It symbolizes ice. Inside the platform, it is suggested to plant small plants and make a transparent floor above them that people can walk on. This indicates a metaphor that brings us back to the problem of ecology.
The ‘ice’ has to be maintained for a balance in Nature. It is like quarantine for Nature. You can watch, but you cannot touch. This project seeks to convey a metaphor and perception that we all cannot live without Nature. It is important to keep Nature safe and take care of it.

All flowers proposed for the garden are small grassy flowers and plants of the Russian Tundra zone. These plants are small and interesting in combination with each other. They are a kind of metaphor representing modest but unique and attractive Nature of the North. These plants and flowers are perfect for implementing the idea of a garden.
