Fernando Caruncho
Fernando Caruncho (born 1958) is a landscape architect best known for his minimalist, contemporary gardens. His work focuses on the Charbagh style of the Islamic gardens of Moorish Andalusia.
==Life==
Caruncho was born in Madrid, Spain and grew up travelling between Madrid and the southern Spanish province of Andalusia. He first attended the University of Madrid to study philosophy, but learning of the Greek method of teaching in the garden motivated his to transfer to Castillo de Batres School in Madrid where he received a degree in landscape design in 1979. While there he focused on classical Greek and Islamic gardens. Caruncho explicitly refuses to describe himself as a paisajista, a landscape designer; he instead refers to himself as a jardinero, a gardener, citing that even “Capability” Brown called himself a gardener.〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/gardenstovisit/7692561/Fernando-Carunchos-geometric-gardens.html〕 He views the garden, not as a landscape, but as a person with its own personality and as a member of the family; a protector of the residence.
His perspective on the garden dates back to his childhood. The contrasting gardens of his grandparents’ houses in cool, verdant Galicia and in arid, austere Andalusia provided the young Caruncho with a fantasyland where every sight, scent, and sound enchanted him with its uniqueness and beauty. Even the gardener seemed to transform into a mystical figure that brought life to the magical realm of the garden. As he grew older, the garden became a place to discover love and even a secret romance. For Fernando, his home lies in his childhood and is directly tied to the garden – idyllic and magical. He first attended the University of Madrid to study philosophy, but learning of the Greek method of teaching in the garden motivated his to transfer to Castillo de Batres School in Madrid where he received a degree in landscape design in 1979. Once in college, he went on to study philosophy, a passion of Caruncho’s that deserves to be mentioned, not separately from his passion for the garden, but listed as a fusion between the two; in his mind they are inherently related to each other. This relationship began as Fernando realized the importance of the garden to the Greek philosopher Plato, who used the garden as a place of teaching and repose. He recognized that the key to antiquity lies in the garden and he now practices philosophy through his intense involvement in the garden, with his design style focusing on providing every opportunity for meditation and reflection.
