Japanese Gardens
My passion lies in designing Japanese gardens and Japan-inspired gardens, where nature, art, and spirituality create a unique atmosphere. Carefully placed stones, artfully pruned plants, and striking trees, sometimes complemented by a traditional lantern, harmonize into a complete work of art. Together, these elements create a space of tranquility and meditation that reflects the natural beauty of the Far East while providing a retreat for reflection and relaxation.
Project Manager of Design at Park Seleger Moor
Since my childhood, I have been closely connected with this extraordinary park. In the 1980s and 1990s, I had personal contact with the park’s founder, Robert Seleger, who showed me his park during numerous walks, shared many stories from his life, and left a deep impression on me as a pioneer in horticulture, plant collector, world traveler, and adventurer.
After two decades of increasing collaboration with Park Seleger Moor, I have been working in the park as the “Project Manager of Design” since 2020.
Under my planning and design leadership, various redesigns have been implemented, including the design of the main entrance, the “Redwood Cathedral,” the “Nepal-Garden” and the “Sensory Garden with Barefoot Path,” which will be inaugurated and opened in mid-July 2024.
In honor of the park founder’s 111th birthday in 2022, I conceived and authored the “Robert Seleger Trail,” which features 12 information boards about the life of this extraordinary creator, who established a magnificent Far Eastern garden with Park Seleger Moor.
Connecting Nature, Gardens, and Art at Kulturzelt.ch
My fascination with the connection between nature and art led to the founding of a concert series in the Kulturzelt at Park Seleger Moor. As the artistic co-director, I have been organizing several concerts annually in the Kulturzelt since 2018, together with my wife Nadja Saminskaja and my brother Dominik Fischer.

Garden and Music Tours with Kulturzelt-Reisen
During my numerous stays in Marrakesh over the past two decades – a city renowned for its impressive gardens – I developed a special interest in Arabian paradise gardens and the concept of paradise in various cultures. This passion led to increasing requests from friends and acquaintances to show them the city of Marrakesh with its extraordinary gardens. Thus, the offering of music and garden tours was born.
Since 2019, my wife Nadja Saminskaja and I have been organizing music and garden tours to Marrakesh and Sintra in Portugal. More information can be found on our website: www.kulturzelt-reisen.ch.
Thank you very much for your interest – Yours sincerely, Andreas C. Fischer
