Garden No Direction

'Garden without Direction', in a Tokyo suburb, designed by Takeshi Nagasaki. Following in-yo (Chinese yin-yang) principles, the garden is divided between light and dark. The overlapping concrete discs symbolise lightness, while the obscure miniature landscape below them symbolises darkness and the underworld. A horizontally spreading Chinese juniper adds a touch of nature, and vertically set slabs of blue Teppei slate symbolise the energy of a dragon.
