Following the introduction by Massimiliano Finazzi Flory, we find ourselves taken along a subtle and poetic pathway leading through the gardens that have marked the lives of the authors, experts in designing outdoor spaces for the past 25 years. A full immersion into their world, from the origins of the garden to the personal vision of Marco Sandrini, on that of the future. What milestones will we find in this wonderful “paper” garden?

The story that follows is an enthusiastic succession of projects that inspired the Sandrini brothers to constantly come up with new solutions, original interpretations and charming places of harmony and beauty.
