About
2 Simple studio is a place where we explore new ideas and methods by combining our passion in landscape architecture and engineering. Core of our design is to keep things simple, utilising though elaborate processes and methods. Our planet for example, is an infinite library of patterns and information, all connected, creating something seamless and simple, but beautiful.
That's what we are inspired from.
With experience in various scales projects, from masterplanning to bespoke landscape elements and features, we work in close relation with our clients in order to deliver a fresh and efficient design up to the point.

Prism
This water feature is conceived as an illusion, where water itself becomes the prism. Through fine mist and flowing surfaces, light is refracted into a shifting spectrum, evoking the presence of a natural rainbow.
Ephemeral and ever-changing, the installation blurs the line between reality and perception—revealing colour, movement, and atmosphere as a fleeting expression of light and water.

Minimal elements and muted materials shape an almost deserted atmosphere, allowing the mind to slow down and focus.
Designed for reading and reflection, the space becomes a retreat where stillness, solitude, and concentration are gently restored.

Atrium
The landscape design for the atrium in this Villa in Barcelona is conceived as a minimal extension of the architecture, where water, light, and planting create a seamless connection between the villa and its surroundings.
Landscape corridors between the villa blocks are transformed into reflective water mirrors, extending the sky and natural light into the architecture. Subtropical planting is integrated with carefully placed rocks along the house, creating a soft, natural contrast to the clean architectural forms.
The landscape is intentionally restrained, allowing water reflections, natural light, and vegetation to become the main design elements. The result is a calm, immersive setting where the villa appears to float within the landscape.

Modern Villa
The landscape is conceived as a refined continuation of the villa’s modern architecture, using clean geometry, strong horizontal levels and simple, sculptural forms.
Concrete and smooth, understated materials create a calm architectural framework, while lush subtropical planting brings softness and contrast. Planting is carefully structured to reinforce the geometry, but with areas of deliberate freedom where vegetation becomes more relaxed and spontaneous.
The result is a balance between precision and wildness—a minimal, contemporary garden softened by the natural character of subtropical vegetation.
