Leptek-Terv Landscape Architecture Studio has been engaged in Landscape Architecture since 2002. Our work focuses on people-centred renewal of urban spaces, parks, and residential areas, as well as institutional gardens, playgrounds and the regeneration of historic gardens. From the beginning we believe that a Landscape Architect is both an engineer, an artist and a community organizer. For this reason, our work is not limited to design, but also to create values in other social activities related to Landscape Architecture, such as community planning, applied arts, publications and education. The studio started material development, which resulted in the establishment of the Viaplant brand.

One of our main goals in creating Viaplant was to represent the diversity of nature. We reconsidered the utilization of plant parts generated during the maintenance of urban green spaces.In addition to autumn foliage and mowed grass, we also saw beauty and opportunity in aggressively spreading invasive species such as the Canadian goldenrod or ragweed. Only plant parts with a renewal period of up to one year are used in the production of our materials. This is a key factor in minimizing the environmental impact. It is also important for us that the natural raw materials of Viaplant, without exception, come from domestic sources, and the entire work process takes place in Hungary. 

THE MATERIAL

Similarly to amber that captures the history of life Viaplant encapsulates nature’s artistic performance and preserves it in the long run. The different types of combined materials have different advantages. They all have in common, however, the plant that provides the essence.

PLANT TEXTURES

// BASIC COLOUR SAMPLES

With our products we want to show the diversity in the shape, colour and texture of plants. And how we can create an appearance and a unique atmosphere rich in detail by using the simplest plant parts. 

For this purpose, Viaplant panels are made using 15 different plant patterns.

Our illuminated Viaplant surfaces are available with 8 types of plant textures. 

These textures have been selected to fit aesthetically into interiors with different atmosphere. The collection is therefore made up of cooler and warmer shades as well as loose and flowing patterns. Transparent surfaces are made using the following plant parts

POA / POA FLORI

grass

The grass created during the maintenance of gardens and urban green areas, as well as the maintenance of football field lawns, retains its natural green color thanks to the special drying process.

ROSA

rose petals

Roses have been planted and refined for thousands of years for their ornamental value. When illuminated, they create the same mystical atmosphere as the stories woven around it

PHRAGMIT

reed

The spacious inflorescence of reeds with a straw background gives a flowing pattern and a vibrant image. It is characterized by a soft texture and a golden-brown shade, which is an excellent translucent type.

CALAM-TRITICUM

bushgrass-hay

The bushgrass with akground displays a friendly homogeneous tone. When illuminated its exciting world of form shows even more spectacularly.

LIGNUM BLUE

coloured woodwool

The mowed meadow is complemented by human imagination. The tinted fibrous coverings create an exciting, modern effect. Loose-textured, well-screened type.

LIGNUM MIX

coloured woodwool

The mowed meadow is complemented by human imagination. The tinted fibrous coverings create an exciting, modern effect. Loose-textured, well-screened type.

TRITICUM

straw

The fibrous texture of dry straw with its natural, warm tone results in a friendly effect.

PEONIA

peony

There are many traditions associated with peony. We want to create a new habit of lamp lighting by scanning the petals and its stunning atmosphere.
