"Best Design Award For The World Flower Garden Show 2017"

This work by Kitazawa is called the "Creative Garden". Since the theme for the competition was "Party", Kitazawa implemented various kinds of nature, such as the sun, stone, trees, soil and water. His image was to present all the nature as if they were having a party. The work was awarded the Best Design award at the World Flower Garden Show

"Japanese Style Basin"

This work of gardening was done accordingly to the customer's image. By implementing cherry blossoms in the garden, the owner would be able to enjoy the differenet seasons. The basin itself is meant to allow visitors to cleanse their hands before a tea cermony. The unique design of combining various kinds of stones was also very effective in bringing out a unique Japanese atmosphere

"Private Garden Landscaping"

The customer's request was to design and create a large scale Japanese Garden in their yard. Through planting 10 maple trees and 200 Japanese cedar trees, we were able to bring this majestic scenery to life. The garden was built in 1970, and is still flourishing till this day. The gardening project was enormous, using up a total land area of 5000m².
