MOSS WALL
Use moss as a campus.
Express the new landscaping values with painting and modeling techniques.
People become more attractive as they grow their annual rings.
Couldn't the garden also be like that?
You cannot create a garden with a PC or a factory.
We cultivate the soil by hand and raise water to grow plants.
Sometimes we combine strange stones.
It takes a very long time because it is a stone that is not a quadrilateral.
It will be muddy on rainy days.
However, the flowers come in beautiful flowers in response to the time spent.
The garden reflects people's work.
If we trace the history, we have suppressed nature as a symbol of religious and power and reproduced the ideal garden.
But nature goes beyond wisdom.
Among them, moss and stones make the viewer feel time.
It may be that the time has passed into the hundreds of millions of years of stone formations and ancient fortifications.
Moss art and masonry that use a rattan replace old one with new one by skillfully using material.
Usually, when you stand in front of the yard you can see how much you are chased by time.
A state of mourning, the rust of the stone, It takes time and effort to create a garden carefully and carefully.
There are good and sometimes bad things in time.
I would be glad if such goodness of the garden could be known to you.
