O conceito de "jardim em movimento", uma das ideias mais interessantes deste "Jardineiro" (ele assim se define), deveria (deverá?) mudar a forma de nos relacionarmos com o mundo natural, desde logo na forma como se projectam e mantêm os jardins. Propõe uma atitude menos impositiva da mão humana relativamente à Natureza, aproveitando-se mais/contrariando-se menos as tendências de evolução, nomeadamente da vegetação. No fundo, a ideia simples (aparentemente) de trabalhar mais com e menos contra as forças naturais.
"It is understandable and perhaps even inevitable that professionals who shape space today, having no experience in observing nature much less any ongoing complicity with visible living matter - although they make use of it - have fallen back onto the only elements at their disposal: shapes, colours, textures and smells organized into pictures. Thus arises the strange and dangerous gap between the world of science and that of the developers. In the current state of scientific discourse, there is a real barrier between those who exert an influence on the environment and those who know what it is made of.(...)
How can we bring about a future rich enough in tolerance to conceive of spaces where nature collaborates with humankind rather than be seen as an obstacle to our desires?"
