One such believer is our Gujpreneur Mr. Viral Shah. Viral Harshad Shah, born in 1978 in Ahmedabad is the founder of La Scapes. La Scapes deals in Landscape Designs, Landscape development, Irrigation systems, fountains, and much more. It has achieved a huge name in this industry.

It was his school days when Viral used to wander around in his garden, noticing mali and learning things from him. He was intrigued by the beauty and content of trees, leaves and plants.

Soon after his 12th boards, Viral turned his hobby into a business and started a venture of installing the Irrigation systems in gardens. While pursuing his BCOM, he used to handle his business and focus on its growth.

Gradually, he started helping his clients to design their gardens and within some time he professionally started designing and executing gardening projects for his clientele.

Holding no formal education or degree didn’t stop him from being a huge name in this technical and creative industry. With his experiments and knowledge, today Viral has gained expertise with his experience. Being around the amazing minds of the industry had given him various insights to reach where he is.

Alike every industry, even this industry keeps changing at a pace and one needs to be updated with various technologies and demands out there. Viral has always been a keen learner and took steps into learning designing using various technologies like CAD.

With the upcoming norms by the Government and increasing awareness of people, having a green patch/area is mandatory for any residential, commercial, or industrial development. People have been showing a great interest in getting their gardens designed by professionals with experience and expertise.
