Organically shaped paths that connect the space lead through the park. Parterre is formed by lush islands of flowering shrubs. With the changes of the seasons, the image of the park changes attractively, always different, stimulating users of the space. The space is rich in coloUrs and aromatic scents. The dominant colour is green, blue and white, which brings a relaxing atmosphere. The vertical backbone in the space consists of cypress, pine, cedar, palm, almond, magnolia trees … The green roofs of succulents are made in the manner of abstract tapestries. Various of created aestheticised views define the green space.”
