Square and Round — the Fang Yuan Garden in 2013 the 22nd Chaumont International Garden Festival
Installed in Chateau Chaumont, this small rain garden, Square and Round (Fang Yuan, 方圆), is a contemporary re-interpretation of Chinese traditional gardens by applying the formal language of curvilinear and square, the spatial experiential strategy of enclosure and making small into big, and through the construction technique of cutting and fill. This project integrates the contemporary concept of stormwater management with the Chinese gardening philosophy about man and nature, and provides an intimate pleasant experience both for viewing for performing.
