The garden
The Temple is a completely new way to enjoy a garden. People walk through the dry Mediterranean landscape and enter a pavilion in the middle with hanging ribbons in the upper space, entirely different Mediterranean plants in the centre, and several seating areas. It challenges our idea of human scale, because the length of the ribbons is such that people have to bow slightly to enter the pavilion, as if entering a temple, sit and lie down. They have to smell, touch, revere and get close to the plants, with the ribbons blown by the wind - a complete experience of nature.
The garden provides a totally different and interesting perspective for the public and will be a highlight of the Garden Festival.
