General Description:
This project situated inside the prestigious Institut du Monde Arabe was part of the 2016 exposition Jardins d'Orient. The garden was imagined by landscaper Michel Péna, who successfully transformed a concrete space into a haven of freshness and green. In addition, the spectacular vegetal anamorphous designed by the architect François Abélanet captivated the space with its star floating shape.
Why Expanded Clay:
Expanded clay was used as a drainage layer beneath the substrate and was used due to its ability to retain in the garden.
Key benefits:
The blowing of the granulates made it possible to place the expanded clay rapidly despite the space constraints.
