Landscape
Landscaping is basically design and planning gardens, planting, care and maintenance of public and private utilities areas. Our team of landscape design consultants and third party experts make complete study of the soil, water level and tropics of the locality and accordingly suggest a GREEN CARPET plan.
Projects team builds viability of the same in terms of effective use, execution and client’s budget and then the file goes for final approval.
Landscaping and Illumination are loosely coupled though highly cohesive in nature, in most cases it is interdependent and hence, there is always a deliberate use of light to achieve practical aesthetic effects, shadows, tones of white lights and other shades are planned and lumens calculated.
It includes both man made lightings such as lamps, light fixtures as well as harnessing and control of natural light in day time.

Azizia Fountain
Azizia Fountain’s landscaping design is an integrated approach combining aesthetic elegance with functional sustainability. Our expert team of landscape consultants and third-party specialists conducts a thorough study of soil composition, water table levels, and the local climate to recommend a comprehensive GREEN CARPET strategy.
Once designed, our projects team validates the plan’s viability in terms of practicality, implementation efficiency, and alignment with the client’s budget, followed by final approval.
Although landscaping and illumination are considered loosely coupled, they function cohesively and often interdependently. We carefully calculate the interplay of light and shadow, color temperature, and lumen intensity to ensure visually stunning yet practical results.
Our lighting solutions include high-quality lamps, energy-efficient fixtures, and strategic daylight harnessing, maximizing the use of natural light during the day.

The Nizam's patronage
• Passion for pearls: The Nizams of Hyderabad, known for their opulent and lavish lifestyles, had a deep admiration for pearls, viewing them as symbols of wealth, royalty, and power. They adorned themselves and their wives with lavish pearl ornaments for all occasions.
• Attracting global trade: News of the Nizams' passion for pearls attracted merchants and artisans from around the world to Hyderabad, particularly from the Persian Gulf, a renowned source of high-quality Basra pearls. The Nizams' demands for the finest pearls helped to establish the city as a major trading centre.
• Refinement hub: The pearls were not naturally harvested in Hyderabad but were imported as raw goods. They were then processed by local artisans who mastered the delicate skills of drilling, bleaching, and stringing.
A legacy of craftsmanship
• Skilled artisans: Hyderabad's reputation was built on the exceptional skills of its craftsmen, especially those in the village of Chandan pet, just outside the city. For generations, entire families in this village have specialized in the art of hand-drilling pearls.
• Intricate jewellery: The artisans transformed the raw pearls into exquisite pieces of jewellery,
Including:
• Satlada: A traditional seven-strand necklace featuring hundreds of pearls, often embellished with diamonds and emeralds.
• Panchlada: A five-layered version of the Satlada.
• Chandbali: A distinctively styled moon-shaped earring.
• Kamar Bandh: A royal waist belt.
A legacy of craftsmanship
• Evolution of the market: When the supply of natural pearls from the Persian Gulf declined in the 20th century, Hyderabad's merchants adapted by importing and refining cultured pearls, ensuring the city remained a prominent hub.
• Present-day market: Today, Hyderabad's pearl market is a vibrant mix of traditional shops and modern outlets. The old city, particularly the areas around Charminar like Laad Bazaar and Pathergatti, remains a key destination for pearl shopping. Notable heritage jewellers, some with histories spanning over a century, continue to uphold the city's legacy.
