Exodus Adventure Travels: The Sounds of Adventure Garden is designed to engage all senses, this sustainable oasis embodies the company’s commitment to sustainable travel. With every element carefully created to minimise environmental impact, from materials selection to water conservation techniques.
A central building appears to levitate above the garden and over planting, chosen to encourage pollinators.
A watercourse gently snakes through the garden, supporting biodiversity and playing a crucial part of the balanced water management system, which flows throughout the design.
Each plant and each feature, relates to our interconnectedness with the earth, urging us to tread lightly and cherish our place in the environment.
