Narmino Jardins designed and landscaped a Japanese garden at the Park Palace in Monaco. Conceived as a place of calm and contemplation, the project combines the principles of Japanese gardens with a contemporary landscape design suited to its setting.
A garden designed as a landscape in its own right
The success of a Japanese garden depends on the balance between plants, materials, volumes and pathways. Each element must find its place without overwhelming the composition. For this project, our teams worked with landscape architects to create a harmonious atmosphere that can be appreciated both during the day and after nightfall.
This project illustrates the landscape study and design work carried out by Narmino Jardins in Monaco and on the French Riviera. From preparing the space to the final staging, the garden was considered as a whole to give it a strong and consistent identity.
A river suggested through glass and light
One of the garden’s central features is a representation of a river made from tinted glass blocks. The composition suggests the movement of water while introducing a contemporary artistic dimension. As the light changes, the glass creates shifting reflections that bring the landscape to life and add depth to the scene.
This approach reinterprets an essential symbol of the Japanese garden without attempting to reproduce it literally. The river becomes a visual thread around which the other elements of the garden are arranged.
Night lighting integrated into the design
The lighting was developed with the landscape architects to reveal the garden after sunset. Carefully positioned lights highlight the volumes, transparent surfaces and main lines of the composition. They give the glass blocks a new presence and create a peaceful atmosphere without distorting the landscape.
Considering plants, materials and lighting together makes it possible to create a garden that remains enjoyable at different times of day. This comprehensive approach is part of the expertise Narmino Jardins brings to its garden design projects.
