"A
Tranquil Oasis"
Sylvia Bird
Surrey, England
"With
this 'Zen' style are we create an intimate and
tranquil oasis. In the time honored fashion the natural
materials have been used to create the world around us
simplicity in the turmoil of life. The rocks are the stabilizing
element, the mountains. The moss covered and weathered
stones relate to the areas from whence they came. The
sand patterns illustrate the sea and waves. The trees are
the forest whilst the flowers give pleasure and abundance.
The bamboo fencing unifies the design, encompassing
nature and blocking out unwanted elements. All of this
embodies the 'Pleasures of the Garden' with a small area to
stop and think - to meditate. An oasis."
