SANTA HELENA FARM
Location: Bragança Paulista, São Paulo - Brazil

Architecture: Maureen Bogaard
This project had
a challenge to create an exuberant garden with enormous proportions inside an
orange farm.
Orchad, vegetable garden,
greenhouse, boulevards and pergolas designed to shelter the owner family,
transplant of huge trees and many species were needed to be planted to change
the farm and mix the agriculture with forests and gardens originating in a
natural and unpretentious effect.
Species like flamboyants,
jabuticaba, lilies, and agapantus combined with some species found in tempered
climate such as platanus and lavenders. Following the project, garden walls and
stairs were built.
