Garden Influence

Scenery is the fundamental element in garden construction.

Establishing scenery implies the presence of a human gaze, which takes in the scenery.

Scenery emerges out of opportunity.
It is the introduction of buildings in appropriate place that create a sequence of sceneries which form contrasts and oppositions that retain the visitor's interest.  A successful garden is one where the scenery changes at each step, providing new viewpoints created by intentional framing processes.

Conceptual principles entail notions of  -Seperation, Quest, Suggestion and Passage- 4 tempos of the score establishing link between inside and outside, the illusion of spatial continuity between the foreground and background.
