Merletti garden design is engaged in producing a “green area” supporting the therapy. A therapeutic or healing garden has the aim to exert a beneficial anti-tress effect on those who enjoy it. Not to be neglected is the social aspect, as well as the integration and the opportunity to enjoy the nature as a teaching instrument.

It is scientifically demonstrated that the environmental characteristics play a fundamental role in the recovery of the patient. In this respect, the use of natural materials together with a particular composition of vegetations, water and furniture is of great help to us. Another essential characteristic is the complete accessibility to all spaces, through protected paths and absence of architectural features that deny access to handicapped people.

Involving the patient or the visitor is possible both during the realisation phase and in the time, by applying practices like garden-therapy and ecological therapy.
