“Every landscape has its language” says Mr Kariuki, adding that landscapes create moods, tell stories, evoke emotions and connect people. “Humans are the only beings that enjoy the environment for the sake of enjoying it” says Mr Kariuki.

Alternatively, you can have an arid theme by combining plants such as sisal and cactus with stones of different sizes.
