Courtyards & historic gardens
In the palazzi of the center, greenery hides in courtyards, often shady and enclosed by high walls. We choose plants for shade and partial shade and work on texture, materials and proportions.
Gardens
in Padua
Padua is home to the oldest botanical garden in the world still on its original site, and greenery is part of the city’s history. We design custom gardens, courtyards and terraces in the city and in the Euganean Hills, with plants suited to the climate of the plain, and we follow each project through to construction.

the plain
Padua sits at the heart of the Veneto plain: foggy, damp winters, hot and muggy summers, soils that are often fertile but heavy. To the southwest rise the Euganean Hills, with different exposures and microclimates and a landscape of vineyards and villas.
A garden here has to offer shade and coolness in summer and stay tidy in winter. We choose plants that cope with humidity, work on drainage where the soil is compact and give the garden an evergreen structure that holds up all year.
We follow projects in Padua with scheduled site visits, our presence on site at the key stages and a maintenance plan.

The studio
Roberto Landello is a garden designer with studios in Lignano Sabbiadoro and Monza. We take on garden and terrace projects in Padua and its province as well, organizing the work in stages: site visit, design, our presence on site at the key moments and a long-term maintenance plan.
Our work starts with plants. Roberto grew up in his family’s nursery in Lignano Sabbiadoro and trained at the Scuola Agraria del Parco di Monza; Luca, our technical lead, combines a background in construction with training in agronomy and arboriculture.
We follow our projects in Veneto from the Lignano Sabbiadoro studio, with the same method we use close to home. In 2017 our installation “Ciclicità lunare” won the Foglia d’Oro del Lago di Como award at Orticolario, and our projects have been featured in Gardenia, Casa in Fiore and Terrazzi e balconi.
Every space
in Padua
Terraces
On Padua’s terraces the summer heat is intense. Custom planters, shade, hardy plants and automatic irrigation turn the terrace into an extra room.
Home gardens
The family home garden: paths, shady corners, places to spend time together and borders that change with the seasons.
Hillside gardens
In the hills the garden opens onto vineyards, woods and villas. We work with slopes, views and plants that tie the space to the landscape.
Services
01
Landscape Design
We design green spaces that bring continuity to daily life, creating natural settings where plants, pathways, materials, and proportions come together in a harmonious balance. The project does more than simply organize an outdoor space; it reveals its character and transforms it into a place to be enjoyed.
02
Terrace Design
We work with greenery, shade, privacy, views, and materials to create intimate and welcoming spaces, designed to bring nature even into the most urban settings and transform every outdoor area into an intimate and personal landscape.
03
Garden design
Through shapes, heights, blooms, textures, and seasonal variations, we create plant arrangements that evolve over time without losing their balance. Every botanical choice stems from the interplay of aesthetics, location, and care, so that the greenery can grow naturally, harmoniously, and sustainably.
04
Landscape Consulting
Consulting helps identify new possibilities, address issues, and make the most of what already exists, offering a clear vision of how to transform gardens and terraces into more harmonious, functional spaces that better reflect the way you want to experience them.
05
Project Management and Coordination
We oversee the work on-site by coordinating expertise, timelines, and tasks to ensure that materials, construction details, and plant elements accurately reflect the initial design concept.
06
Scheduled Maintenance
A garden continues to change even after it has been created. That is why ongoing care is an integral part of the project: it supports the growth of the plants, maintains the balance of the space, and allows the garden or terrace to retain its quality, form, and vitality season after season.
