Home Ground

Antonio Perazzi

The design of a garden in this part of Sicily is a dream. At the foot of the volcano overlooking the sea there is a magical land where everything grows, where inspiration flows in the air, trees are ancient and rocks pure matter.

Antonio Perazzi

He trained at the Milan Polytechnic and at the Kew Royal Botanical Gardens in London. In 1998 he opened his own design studio, signing important projects and collaborating with leading architectural firms and engineering companies. He has worked in France, Russia, India, Austria, Canada, USA, China, Kuwait, Morocco. He has been a contract professor at the Milan Polytechnic and has held workshops in numerous Italian and foreign universities. He wrote for several national and international newspapers and published the books “Contro il Giardino” (Against the Garden) with editor Ponte alle Grazie and “Foraverde” for editor Maestri di Giardino. His next book, “Il paradiso è un giardino selvatico” (Heaven is a wild garden), is going to be published by Utet. He signs the column “Bustine di paesaggio” on the magazine Gardenia.

Concept

The garden produces the gardener who inhabits it, caresses it, smells it, collects its exotic fruits. “Home ground” is a garden that can shape and take the shape of plants. A central chessboard parterre dictates the rules of a new relationship with nature, the transforming water makes a variation of it. The slightly cut basalt stone is the body of a house that can accommodate. A garden that is flooded, to irrigate or perhaps because it simply wants to change its shape like growing plants: being in the world is being in the sea of the world, a form of immersion. A complex geometry that continuously changes, made of flows that osmotically cross us and which at the same time we invade with waves of variable intensity, in perpetual movement. Photosynthesis is a cosmic process of fluidization of the universe: from solar energy to living matter. In this garden a natural environment is created with the elements that already exist, without discarding anything, through decomposition and reassembling. The project finds its natural place between the ditch and the tower where the dactylifera and the tamarix mark the natural limit of a new garden.

Antonio Perazzi realized the project with the kind collaboration of Gaetano Zoccali e Benedetta Forni.
Collaborated: Silvia Ciacci, Elena Villa, Dalila Nessi, Adriano Fossati.
