The Art of Greenery According to Sgaravatti Group

Custom-designed gardens, botanical expertise, and international design: the landscape as an expression of style and identity

There is a precise moment when a garden ceases to be merely a green space and becomes a landscape. That is where the Sgaravatti Group comes into play.

For nearly two centuries—its origins date back as far as 1820—the group has been one of the most influential players in the landscape design sector, with expertise rooted in nursery cultivation and now extending to integrated design on a global scale. But to reduce Sgaravatti to a gardening company would be a mistake: here, greenery is a living entity, studied, interpreted, and crafted with the precision of a scientific discipline.

Knowledge of plants as a starting point

At the heart of every project lies deep botanical expertise. This expertise is not merely aesthetic but functional: understanding how a plant grows, in which season it takes root best, and how it reacts to a specific climate or soil. It is precisely this ability to interpret the context—from soil and climate conditions to temperature fluctuations—that allows the team to select the most suitable species and ensure a long-lasting result. It is not, therefore, a matter of “planting,” but of building a biological balance: every garden is created to live and transform, season after season.

Custom-designed gardens, blending aesthetics and function

Every project is unique. A garden can be designed to frame a natural landscape, enhancing its beauty, or to welcome, reflect, and create an atmosphere. From private villas to luxury hotels, and even public spaces, Sgaravatti develops fully customized solutions that blend harmoniously into their surroundings and meet the needs of those who experience them. The result is truly captivating settings: places to be lived in, rather than merely observed.

From Sardinia to the World

The history of the Sgaravatti Group is also intertwined with that of the Costa Smeralda®. It is no coincidence that, over the years, the group has been commissioned by renowned architects and key figures in the region’s development, including the Aga Khan.

From there, the company’s horizons have gradually expanded: today, it operates in complex and fascinating international settings, from Azerbaijan to the Middle East and all the way to Africa. Projects carried out under extreme conditions—such as in deserts or tropical climates—have helped establish a unique expertise in landscape management on a global scale. This experience enables the company to tackle any landscaping challenge, anywhere in the world.

Design and Construction: A Complete Value Chain

One of Sgaravatti’s distinctive features is its ability to oversee every stage of the process: from plant cultivation to design, right through to on-site construction. The group coordinates multidisciplinary teams—agronomists, engineers, and landscape architects—ensuring total control over quality and execution. This integration allows us to transform an idea into a tangible landscape, without compromising between vision and execution.

The future of green spaces is sustainable

Alongside the design aspect, there is a strong focus on sustainability: efficient irrigation systems, the selection of native species, research into water conservation, and environmental engineering projects. From desert reforestation in the Emirates in the 1970s to the most recent soil bioremediation projects, Sgaravatti demonstrates how green spaces can also serve as a tool for environmental regeneration.

In a region like the Costa Smeralda®, where the relationship between architecture and nature is fundamental, the contribution of companies like Sgaravatti is crucial. Because, at the end of the day, designing a garden means this: understanding nature well enough to complement it—not to impose on it.
