Landscape Middle East - February 2021

I dette nummeret

Welcome to the February issue of Landscape ME. While this year hasn’t brought the immediate relief that we all hoped for as of yet, we are still full of optimism here at Landscape HQ that budgets will soon be approved and paused projects will once again get the green light. In the meantime, we will continue to showcase the best of the Landscape industry’s local talent and most recently completed projects. In this issue, Olympic Swimming pools provide a detailed account of their latest projects, including Dubai’s newest sports hub located in Mirdif, aptly named Sports Society, and Sharjah’s largest ever mixed-use mega development, Aljada. Dubai based company, Landmasters Landscaping and Construction L.L.C also set out their most recent work, including the area surrounding Galleria Mall in Al Maryah Island, Abu Dhabi. Will Bennett, founder of WILDEN Design, tells us why saving the planet starts with your client’s garden. He reiterates why it is incumbent upon us all in the industry to shift people’s perceptions of Landscape design in order to create cultural change and promote sustainability with a back to basics approach of nature. We also feature projects in Mexico and Russia that are pushing the boundaries of design and setting new standards for urban living.
