December has already begun. The year 2023 flew by. We look back and are delighted with the large number of exciting projects that we were able to realise this year.
In this article, we invite you on a journey through time and present our personal highlights.
A new meeting place for the nature play group
In spring 2023, we closed our Christmas project off. The Schnickelschnack nature play group wanted a sustainable remodelling of their forest playground. Our team breathed new life into the ageing space. Now the leaders and children can enjoy their renovated meeting place and play area.
More inspiration through diverse garden design
We have presented seven new references to you this year. Each garden is individually customised to the needs of our customers. Once again this year, we have added swimming pools to our outdoor living areas. Both Living Pools and conventional pools were installed. These reference gardens serve as a source of inspiration and visualise the design possibilities. In the following picture gallery we show you our garden designs from this year.
Two very special reference gardens
We also had a reason to celebrate this year: one of our gardens is one of the 50 most beautiful in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It's hard to imagine that this family garden is hidden in the middle of a housing estate. The new extension gives the bathing paradise an unbelievable atmosphere, as if the holiday were starting right on the doorstep.
Another highlight for us was that we were able to present Marc Sway's finished garden to you. The new garden fulfils all the wishes of the young family, offers enough space for joint celebrations and is also a swimming paradise for the children in summer.
Marc Sway talks personally about the garden remodelling in an interview:
Seven successful graduations and one apprenticeship start
Three years ago, our trainees began their apprenticeship with us. For three years, they steadily expanded their knowledge and familiarised themselves with a wide range of construction sites and gardens. Their hard work paid off, as they immediately Seven apprentices have successfully passed their exams. We are incredibly proud and delighted to have some of them in our team.
At the same time, we welcomed a new apprentice this year. Jorin started his apprenticeship as a gardener with us in August and was able to support the team on site on his very first day.
Our "A day with..." series continues
The film series «A day with...» gives you an insight into the daily work of our employees. This year we accompanied Thomas as foreman in pool construction. In this interview, he talks about what makes his job so special and what he enjoys most about it.
Focus on major construction sites
The Büntli residential development in Flums is one of our special highlights. The connection to nature can be felt throughout the entire housing estate. A wide variety of plants and fruit trees ensure biodiversity and at the same time create a cosy atmosphere.
The largest pool with Living Pool technology that we have been able to realise to date is located in the middle of the housing estate. Thanks to natural water purification, no chemicals are required.
Now we can already look forward to the next major project: the Grünfelspark in Rapperswil-Jona. The new city park is scheduled for completion in late summer 2024. The focus is on bringing together all generations. In addition to play equipment, relaxation oases and infrastructure for large events, the element of water will also be incorporated. We look forward to realising this project and keeping you up to date.
Our new website
In October, we were finally able to share one of our internal projects with you. With the new design options, you can immerse yourself in our projects, watch videos and like posts on our website.
Full of joy and vigour into the new year
We look back on 2023 one last time. The new year will soon begin and we are already looking forward to the great projects and construction sites. Of course, we will continue to take you with us on our journey. Until then, we wish you happy holidays and a happy new year.
