Sit-in garden by hi from china

A garden is to fulfill the desire for nature, and is complemented with the presence of a viewer. The basic elements of a garden are not the natural objects, nor the viewer, but the interaction between the nature and the observer. Thus to construct a garden is simply to construct the view points and the nature to be viewed.

Both Chinese and Germany has an untranslatable term that means, the view of a garden or an object changes as the viewer move around. It implies how a garden exists in its being observed and experienced. It could be absolutely minimum in its layout, yet enriched by the experience.

The sit-in garden is a linear garden at the scale of furniture. The planted garden is precast while the sittings are free stand. As a person go around the garden spending his time, he could position himself as he wishes, and it is always anew.
