The second edition of CASACOR Piauí was the stage for the debut of Cartaxo Bantim Paisagismo with the “Jardim Simbiose” environment, a space that transcended aesthetics by proposing a deep connection between sustainability, memory and affection. Designed by landscape architects Andressa Januário Bantim and Marcélia Cartaxo, the project stood out for its innovative approach and […]
The Symbiosis garden crossing began on an imposing portal, structured by ecological bricks and covered with reuse materials, adorned with a mirrored mosaic art. This entrance already signaled the proposal of the environment of valuing the life cycle and transformation. In the center of the garden, a centenary olive tree, a symbol of peace, wisdom and longevity, invites contemplation and reconnection with nature. “Our goal was to create an environment that spoke directly to the soul and rescuing the good memories of childhood and the importance of our connection with nature,” explains Andressa.
The garden soil, with its organic and winding forms, is an invitation to sensory experience, with carefully selected vegetation that evokes memories of grandparents' gardens. The choice of materials reinforces the message of sustainability and reception.
“We use the Cerbras Ceppo Stone Beige porcelain throughout the garden. Its light tone and organic clippings refer to the movement of the forest, making the space light and welcoming. In the water mirror, the Soho Graphite porcelain creates a surface that reflects the dreams of visitors, embracing this atmosphere of contemplation”, details Marcelia Cartaxo.
The partnership with Cerbras was strategic and essential for the concept of the symbiosis garden. The company stands out for its sustainable practices that permeate the entire production process, from the manufacture of the floor to the disposal of materials. Water reuse, air monitoring, hot air reuse, biogas use, selective collection, waste recycling and reverse logistics of packaging are just some of the initiatives that attest to Cerbras's commitment to the environment.
"The choice of Cerbras was natural, because its sustainable practices further praised the proposal of our garden. It is a perfect symbiosis between design, nature and responsibility," concludes the architect.
The symbiosis garden has consolidated itself as an environment that goes beyond the beautiful, causing a reflection on the importance of sustainability and the appreciation of our affective memories, all with the support and quality of Cerbras products.
