In designing landscape I pursue to

transform my sincere negotiation with my client and with the site we engage into utmost beauty

create a place where our human instinct is replenished and our human imagination exalted

explore the universal motivation of land-making from among the diversity of landscapes

set a stage where cultures of Europe/Italy and Asia/Japan are challenged in confrontation for their mutual enrichment

bring landscapes to the core of our life.

I admire a design process that starts from open-minded conversation with the client to open up all the potentials to be discovered in the site and in our human encounter. This is what Chado (the Japanese Tea Ceremony) calls ichigo ichie: "Treasure every encounter for it will never re-occur".

Let us treasure every encounter between us and with our site, this particular site.

On my philosophy on designing a land, please read further on Land-making.
