Landscape Design Studio
TERRA ASCOLTATA
Landscape Design Studio Terra Ascoltata was born from a vision of nature as something alive—shaped through deep listening to everything it touches.
We listen to the land: to the soil, the climate, the light. We choose plants that thrive naturally in their setting, without forcing balance—creating sustainable gardens that resonate with the Mediterranean landscape. We observe the broader environment and the relationships between plants, designing spaces that feel like a natural extension of their surroundings.
Above all, we listen inwardly. Our gardens are spaces to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover a quiet sense of presence and authenticity.
Maria Kosovskaya – Masha
My name is Maria Kosovskaya, and my journey began with a longing to slow down and rediscover the nature within me.
In Mediterranean gardens, I found a language of honesty and simplicity—where limitation becomes strength, and the landscape adapts with elegance.
My work is rooted in radical listening. It gives shape to a gentle, essential, and resilient aesthetic—shared with those who seek a more genuine relationship with the green world around them.

Garden Design
Each project is born from a quiet listening — to the dialogue between solid forms and empty spaces, earth and vegetation, light and stillness. A garden is not a static place, but a living balance of relationships that welcome one another, shift, and gently transform over time.

From Design to Ground
When a garden begins to take shape on site, every practical decision carries real weight. It’s no longer just about ideas — it’s about soil, roots, proportions, light, and materials. It’s a living, complex phase, and that’s why I follow it closely, with care, presence, and attention to every detail.

Cooperation and Assistance
There are moments when a full design isn’t what’s needed — just an experienced presence, a conversation, a fresh perspective. I offer technical and visual support on themes related to Mediterranean gardens and sustainable design, with an approach that blends vision and practicality.
