Gardens

Marco Traverso is the keeper of a secret garden, an inner world where creativity blooms. He sees potential for greenery everywhere: a corner for a potted plant, a patch of soil for a new seed. Every arrangement reflects his intuitive sense of beauty and his self-taught expertise.

No matter the scale, Marco creates lush environments with precision and grace. From vast gardens to intimate green nooks, he builds living spaces from scratch. Each miniature world is crafted with the same care as a jeweller creating a brooch or ring. A lover of nature and storytelling, Marco views gardening as both an art and a legacy he hopes to pass on.

Terraces

LA LEGENDE

Il était une fois des ours…

A terrace is more than just an outdoor space, it’s an open-air extension of the home. Its soul and harmony must be preserved. With great care, Marco designs even the smallest terraces so they are as vibrant and refined as a full garden. He begins with a detailed analysis: light exposure, surroundings, materials, colours. Then, with a refined palette of plants and accessories, he transforms the space into a personal haven.

To enhance the ambiance, Marco and Karelle offer vases, jars, hanging planters, fountains, and other accents to shape the layout. Stylish containers and thoughtful design give each terrace structure and personality. And because beauty must be maintained, the Traverso team also ensures expert upkeep preserving the elegance of these outdoor spaces throughout the seasons.
