SPIRIT OF THE WOODS
Spirit of the Woods explores humanity’s spiritual connection with nature, using sculpture and landscape as a unified narrative.
Set against a woodland backdrop, the garden brings together stone, water, and planting to create a sequence of immersive spaces. Sculptural elements are not treated as focal points in isolation, but as integral components of the landscape — emerging from water, moss, and shadow.
The design balances strength and softness, with robust materials softened by ferns, woodland planting, and reflections across water.
The garden unfolds gradually, encouraging visitors to engage with both detail and atmosphere. Reflections, sound, and filtered light create a sense of depth and stillness, allowing moments of contemplation within a richly layered woodland setting.
