A tiny balcony in an apartment block in Tokyo has been transformed by artist and gardener Tsuyoshi Nagasaki into a miniature garden solely for viewing; indeed, more an art installation than a garden. The garden wanted a garden suitable for viewing the moon, and Nagasaki devised a surface of white granite arranged in a checkerboard pattern, with the rough-hewn blocks alluding to passing clouds. The cubic glass lights were hand-blown against the texture of the granite and inserted into the rock. A horizontal bamboo fence (Arundinaria japonica) is behind.
