HOUSE IN THE TREES
When night falls, a sophisticated lighting system adds drama and tone, illuminating the trees and the movement of water, highlighting planting in pots as well as the main architecture of the building, whilst creating magical shadows and making this project a space to be enjoyed at all hours of the day - a retreat from city life.
This “garden of trees” incorporates light-open branched species with light and airy-feathered foliage, allowing light to flood into each area of the garden whilst obscuring the view of the surrounding buildings.
The dynamic use of water adds impact and dramatic perspective : The reflective pond, an impressive central element - cuts it's way through the levels of the garden, providing continuity, tranquility and calming sound. Water bubbles-up from its source at the highest level (midway in the garden) running "downstream" towards the main living area - the heart of the house, creating an air of serenity. A sense of flow is achieved through the use of a sequence of cascades, utilising and enhancing the changes in level within the garden.
