since a garden is nothing without its gardener, the Basque landscape designer also reveals a lot about himself. It is the story of a man in search of order and beauty in the heart of a free and indomitable nature.<\/p>\n<p>As a child, I\u00f1igo Segurola was one of those children who picked flowers on every school outing. He used to say that when he grew up, he would write \u201cbooks about trees\u201d. Already passionate about plants, he tells how moved he was when, in science class, the seeds he had placed in damp cotton finally germinated.<\/p>\n<p>Fifty years later, he has created a garden that is unique in the Basque Country, an \u201coddity\u201d in the local landscape. Above all, he has published Lur Garden, the \u201cbook about trees\u201d he had dreamed of.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div

gardens\u201d spread over two hectares in the heart of a small valley in Oiartzun. Some would say it is the Garden of Eden. However, when I\u00f1igo Segurola and his partner Juan Iriarte found this land ten years ago, it was just a meadow where a few cows grazed, bordered by the Sarobe stream.<\/p>\n<p>At the head of Lur Paisajistak since 1994, the visionary landscape architects of Gipuzkoa fell in love with the place and decided to acquire it in order to experiment with their art without constraints.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a3c9603 e-con-full margen-arriba inbox e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7a3c9603\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-101b5ae8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"101b5ae8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c173fe7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5c173fe7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1403\" src=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-9698\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa-1024x599.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa-768x449.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa-1536x898.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa-2048x1197.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lur-garden-baratzea-oiartzun-gipuzkoa-920x538.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f6f575 entrada margen-arriba e-flex e-con-boxed elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5f6f575\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-620088d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"620088d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As the pages turn, Segurola reveals the stages of the project. We learn that the idea of creating a succession of round, rather than straight-lined, gardens emerged from Juan Iriarte&#8217;s sketch of a fried egg. Inspired by metal rings found on the site, Iriarte sketched a garden conceived not as an extension of a building, but as islands in the middle of nature.<\/p>\n<p>The photographs, by Segurola himself and by Clair Takacs, Marta Etxebarria and Unai Bellami, offer a visual journey through these contrasting spaces. We meander from the garden of mirrors, soberly organised around a stretch of water devoid of aquatic plants, to the multi-coloured and luxuriant garden of extravagance.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76ff7f6f e-con-full margen-arriba inbox e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"76ff7f6f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c3486cf e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c3486cf\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67ef6bfb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"67ef6bfb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"942\" src=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-03.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9712\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-03.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-03-255x300.jpg 255w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-03-768x904.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-383a0881 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"383a0881\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-503aeb5a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"503aeb5a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"942\" src=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-02.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9708\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-02.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-02-255x300.jpg 255w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-02-768x904.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c872040 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4c872040\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-371e7c05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"371e7c05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"942\" src=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-01.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9704\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-01.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-01-255x300.jpg 255w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Hemendik-oiartzun-lur-garde-01-768x904.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-265da3e7 entrada margen-arriba e-flex e-con-boxed elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"265da3e7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34084a64 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"34084a64\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Segurola opens the doors to his inner garden<\/strong><br \/>Lur Garden is organised in two parts: the gardener and then the garden. For Segurola, the relationship between the two is visceral. \u201cI always say that this garden was like adopting quintuplets: when one sleeps, the other cries, another becomes uncontrollable, and so on,\u201d he says. The first eight years of this creation were like an obsessive relationship, in which he admits to having forgotten himself to the point of \u201chitting rock bottom\u201d. He compares the garden to a child forever dependent on its parent.<\/p>\n<p>Only yoga and meditation freed him from this interdependence and enabled him to rebuild himself. Rather than a Creator, he then took the place of an Observer in these gardens full of plants and animals, which in the end were not so dependent on him.<\/p>\n<p>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/product\/lur-garden-book\/\">buy the book here<\/a>!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c6ba5eb e-con-full margen-arriba e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5c6ba5eb\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ae7948c nore elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2ae7948c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1410\" src=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-9717\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik-1024x602.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik-768x451.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik-1536x902.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik-2048x1203.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lurgarden-oiartzun-hemendik-920x541.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u00f1igo Segurola&#8217;s book Lur Garden looks back at the genesis of his \u201cgarden of gardens\u201d that he has been shaping for ten years in the Oiartzun valley.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":9660,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[163,178],"tags":[],"tipologia":[131],"class_list":["post-10443","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gipuzkoa-en","category-places","tipologia-noticia"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10443","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10443"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10443\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11405,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10443\/revisions\/11405"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9660"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10443"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10443"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10443"},{"taxonomy":"tipologia","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hemendik.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tipologia?post=10443"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
