philosophy
When designing, it is important for Heiner Luz to consider the creative , ecological and functional-user principles of open space planning equally. Based on family tradition, his designs have a strict structure of plant and built elements. Freely developing plantings are placed in the structure. The selection of plants and other design elements is based on the rule of "uniformity on a large scale, diversity on a small scale". This gives the designs a clear and concise appearance. The type and extent of maintenance are incorporated into the designs.
