With a strong Brazilian character and a universal and heterogeneous language, tropical landscaping is composed of several predominant vegetative species of the Brazilian native forest, such as bromeliads, heliconia and guaimbé. Jasmin Manga, which in addition to bringing plasticity and the idea of deconstructing an aesthetic, rigid, creates an environment with different colors, textures and volumes.
