Located in a Puglia, Italy, a quirkie vineyard designed by a minimalist landscape architect Fernando Caruncho.
The landscaper laid the seeds so the rows of grape vine would form a wave like pattern across the fields, which stretches a massive 250 acres. Word quickly spread and the place has started gathering tourists and design freaks eager to see the beautiful vineyard that produces several excellent organic wines.
As well as the beautiful rows of vines Fernando had workers move 2000 olive trees to compliment the vines and paths that lead up to the property.
David Kelly New York spent 22.5 million on a swimming pool located on his apartment balcony; he then shifted a whopping 20 tons of soil onto his apartment balcony/terrace and installed some 50-foot trees.
The trees had to be lifted up by a crane to be installed into the apartment floor.
He added “Trying to imagine a landscape in the city is difficult, and city projects tend to be so radically different than country projects,” he said. “City projects are more theatrical. But even if all you have is a 7-by-4-foot terrace, you can add an evergreen, a Japanese maple, a few annuals, a piece of outdoor furniture and you’ll have yourself a green backdrop.”
“It’s expensive to look this natural,” added the developer, who estimated the terrace’s atypical infrastructure and seamless indoor/outdoor habitat added another three or four million dollars to the budget. “But we went the extra mile to deliver a turnkey interior, so it made sense to really go for it and do the exterior in a very unusual way. It frankly doesn’t feel like a city terrace. The guiding ethos here was to create alchemy between indoors and out.”
