URBAN/GARDEN | BOC'CARO LAB x Studio Sanguinico
Inspired by landscape designer Piet Oudolf’s work. The name Piet Oudolf is one of those rare names in the plant world that stands a good chance of being recognized even by people not in the plant world. His work contains many wildflower buttercups, bent grass and roses, which subtly complement and immerse into unexpected urban spaces. As the architect himself says: "The garden always look very wild at at this time of the year, and I don’t mind that. But look at in now… still, you can still see the hellebores in flowers, and soon the snowdrops will come, then the crocuses and the first leaves on the tress.”
An idea of candle focused on wild plants combined with concrete. Wild roses and wood smoke like dialogue between nature and city life.
"You can be botanist and know a lot about how plants are built up, you can be an ecologist and know exactly what community a plant grows in and where it grows in the world. I am neither - I know a lot of plants because I love plants, I know where they grow because I love to see where they grow.
Plants for me are a medium - a medium to bring out emotion - a very strong emotion into the field. That’s why I always took every opportunity to go outside the private garden, If I like it - everyone will like it. That is really what I always thought: if I do what I do for just two people, that is too little." - Piet Oudolf | FIVE SEASONS: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf
AMBI/TION
The smell is eclectic, multifaceted and quite chaotic. The enchanting aroma consists of plants, the foundation of which is the Tolu balsam tree from Brazil. This is precisely what determines the intensity and richness of the aroma.
Series: INTER/IOR
Top: cedar, blue pine
Heart: saffron
Base: Tolu balsam
AMBI/TION | BOC'CARO LAB x Studio Sanguinico
Inspired by urbanism, urban gardens, and work by the Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx in which unexpected oval shapes, contrasting colours and plants are combined.
"A garden is not simply product of frivolous idleness; much less is it a magic mantle unfurled to cover defective proportions, contradictory masses, or badly planet volumes. A garden, is, or ought to be, an integral part civilized life, a spiritual and emotional necessity deep rooted and profoundly felt." - Roberto Burle Marx
