We are excited to announce that Urban Oasis will be part of LUGA Luxembourg and open air exhibition of urban gardens, ephemeral installations and agricultural projects will take place at four emblematic venues in Luxembourg City from may 7th until October 18th 2025. In the heart of Luxembourg City, we turn the square of Rive de Claussen into a temporary “Urban Oasis”. Hidden in the bustling urban landscape, this oasis emerges as a pleasant place to stay, It is designed with a diversity of plantings to green the environment, reduce heat stress, increase biodiversity and create a harmonious balance between nature and urbanization. It not only provides a space to relax , but also to attract birds, butterflies and bees. Several nesting opportunities have been created with specially designed objects. These efforts help maintain biodiversity and create a healthy habitat. The planting has been selected in such a way that it also provides food, thus contributing to the habitat of various species. After the exhibition the planting and pots will get a new destination in the city.
