A space where nature, architecture, and emotion move in harmony
The landscape design for the 18,000 sq ft (1,700 m²)
grounds of the Etherstone Garden villa in Dubai became a territory of inspiration — a place where the client’s life philosophy is interwoven with the distinctive style of Studia 54. For this site, we created a complex and deeply considered landscape that reflects a personal story, the rhythm of the villa, and the character of the architecture.
Over several months, a team of more than 60 professionals
— architects, landscape designers, engineers, and visual artists — worked together to bring the client's vision to life. Here, landscape design is not a backdrop to the villa, but an essential part of living: a space shaped by thoughtful leisure scenarios, where lounge zones, walking paths, and lush gardens come together to inspire and restore.

Inspiration and concept
Inspired by the natural fluidity of the land, this project embodies the idea of a personal journey — an inner path, where each curve in the trail, each shrub and terrain line becomes a symbol of motion.
The landscape continues the story of the architecture and follows the principles of Vastu. Every element is placed with intent — our interpretation, guided by the client's perspective. Curved lines, soft contours, carefully orchestrated lighting, and artistic sculptures create a magical ambiance, transforming the grounds into a serene private garden.
Special attention was given to privacy: tall greenery serves as a living screen, sheltering the space from outside view while preserving a sense of seclusion.


Сentral rotunda
The rotunda with a soft seating area becomes a signature space for gatherings and moments of quiet reflection
. It opens onto a sprawling tree that brings both comfort and intimacy to the setting.
For this project, our designers created a bespoke art piece — a chandelier made of rich blue glass, echoing the flamingo sculptures placed within the garden's green zone.
The landscaping was custom-designed with the client’s favorite plants and the local climate
in mind — ensuring a vibrant, living environment throughout the year.
Functionally, the space includes an area for meditation and conversation, as well as a cozy nook for reading or quietly observing the passage of the day.

Rotunda with a unique art object
Author's landscaping is made taking into account the customer's favorite plants, as well as the peculiarities of the climate. Thus, we achieve a bright and lively landscape all year round.
Ground-level landscape composition
The main garden — with towering palms, flourishing shrubs, and a rich variety of greenery — transforms into a tropical oasis, inviting slow walks along warm-toned, sandy-hued paths.
An elegantly designed dining area with stylish tables evokes the feel of an exclusive restaurant seamlessly embedded in its natural surroundings. The layout reveals a scenic panorama: refined landscaping stretching along the building’s façade.


From here, one can admire the elevated infinity pool and a multifunctional stage podium created for events and performances.

Podium for invited guests
Rooftop lounge space
Atop the villa, we designed a secluded lounge with a fireplace and built-in storage. Thanks to its thoughtful layout and selective planting, the terrace becomes a private sanctuary with views of both the city skyline and the garden below.
A covered area makes this a year-round destination — from morning coffee to evening cocktails by the fire. The refined combination of Arabescato and Avorio porcelain, along with brass accents, resonates throughout the project, tying all elements together in harmony.

The terrace as an extension of the landscape
Landscape continued on the façade
An abstract brass sculpture was installed in a niche filled with greenery, integrated into the building’s façade. This art object represents a delicate balance — a metaphor for the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature. That is how our client wishes to feel within their garden: embraced, in tune, and at peace.

Etherstone Garden is a fully formed world — designed for living, inspiration, and inner balance. It grows and evolves with its owner, echoing their rhythm, mood, and dreams. Every path, every turn, every sculpture and silhouette is intentional — part of a larger life scenario.

Stone Garden
This is everything that defines Studia 54
: impeccable style, extraordinary attention to detail, and deep respect for the individuality of those we design for.
