The sense of enclosure created by the surrounding wall should come to feel as those it is softly embracing those within, hence the use of the white-flowering evergreen shrub Fatshedera that will be trained to climb the wall. I have provided for several deciduous shade trees, flowering evergreen shrubs and groundcover. I have two water features in the garden. One, a water-wall, will seem to spill gently over the wall from the outside into a shallow rectilinear pool in a intimate seating area. The second feature is a curvilinear pond in the center of the garden comprising three levels, fragrant water lilies, and a seat wall.
Serenity is reinforced by the surrounding hillside and forest.
Finally, one will find a number of opportunities for sitting in this space, either privately under the shade of a tree or the wall or in a more communal space. When one finds that they are in an anxious state I expect that will find solace and comfort in the garden we seek to create. Thank you for your time and consideration.
