In many cases, the traditional Chinese garden is walled. The feeling of privacy that the visitor experiences combined with the subtle vistas to other garden rooms make the garden into a special experience. Stones symbolize mythical stories and figures. Water is a central theme and flows from one space into another. In this concept the traditional Chinese garden is translated into the current time.

The garden seems to have been cut from a single block of stone. Disc for disc the stone is built up. This creates a beautiful place where light and shadow play with each other. As a modern cave is the garden will be shown to the visitor. Water flows between the discs rocks. In the recessed lows in the rock aquatic plants grow. On deeper spots are water lilies.

Visitors can walk on wooden ramps from one space to another space. In each space the announcement of the next space will be showed in an exciting way.

Storing and caring for water is becoming increasingly important in the future. Especially in Chinese cities, there is little room for water retention. Instead, the rainwater run directly into the sewer. In this modern variant the rainwater is collected and purified in the water garden by the aquatic plants. The water then flows further into the channel.
