Giardini Interiori is a path into our inner world, making up sequences of rooms, where the secret gardens of our soul reside. While descending into our inner self, these rooms become more and more intimate and the gardens more primordial, awakening our sixth sense that will guide us to a deeper perception of the world, nature and humanity. In this way, the sequence changes from a rational garden of Buxus Sempervirens, to a domestic one of Rosmarinum Officinalis and Olea Europea to a natural garden of Poaceae.

The project 'Giardini Interiori' entered among the finalists in the competition 'Spazi Creativi' at the event Orticolario, the international exhibition that takes place every year in the beautiful setting of Villa Erba, Cernobbio, on the shores of Lake Como. The installation won the jury prize 'Garden of Empathy' for the quality of its plants and the remarkable sensitivity of the whole setting, which, in its simplicity, it outlined a path from rational to natural through a variety of different shapes and types of plants.
