The project is based on integration with Solar do Jambeiro, the transformation of the garden as the main access to the Janete Costa Museum and the emphasis on the Escultura das Águas, by artist Miguel dos Santos. In keeping with the Museum’s vision as a Popular Art exhibition, the proposal includes the creation of ornamental exhibition gardens. It considers the exclusive use of species native to the biome and local ecosystems and low maintenance; rustic vegetation; foliage of different shapes, sizes and tones for a sensorial experience.

        The project has three environments: 

        1. Exhibition Garden: Dedicated to the exhibition of external works for the museum in which it dialogues with vegetation that is also an exhibition, next to a grandstand that highlights the areas proposed for possible open-air exhibitions and for the Water Sculpture

        2. Café square: Space for socializing and carrying out collective activities on demand from the museum.

        3. Sensory Forest: Immersive experience in which, from a forest, highlights not only the species themselves but their composition with the other species of the Atlantic Forest.

        Proposals to improve the area in dialogue with the Museum include the reuse of materials such as stone for the boundary walls, demolition wood and metal; consideration of pedestrian flows; installation of rest areas such as a café; detailing of urban furniture; access to water and drainage systems, lighting and landscaping design.
