The Brief
To soften the parking area at the shopping centre and raise the ethos of Shoprite.
The Concept
Was to allow clear views of the shopping centre, to see the cars and shops to announce a new development in Mzuzu.
The Challenge
To minimize the variety of plants so as to bring cohesion of the landscaping areas in the parking area. The plants were sourced in South Africa, however had to be free from Nemotodes. A very difficult exercise to accomplish.
The Implementation
This was done by a local contractor in Malawi, and supported by an irrigation specialist from South Africa.
Timing
Installation of landscaping and irrigation took about 2 months.
