M&A Garden


The birds eye view offers a broad look at the garden in its entirety.  The curving path demonstrates the golden spiral principal and curves loosely around a series of sectors.  Each sector is filled with different plant-life or other examples of nature displaying Math and Art principals.

 Raised deck sectors provide seating, or a level station to set up tables or barbecues, -perhaps even the odd easel. the ground on the right side of the path is sunken several levels, which immerses people deeper into the experience of the whole garden.  As a result the path leading to the center of the garden is on a slight gradual slope.  a second path leads through the sunken section from one side of the garden to the other.  In the middle of this second path is a pedestal, on top of which stands a statue which characterizes the
garden.

The west facing feature wall at the far side of the garden is a large detached free-standing goliath.  It will hold a large stained glass window depicting the galaxy (another example of Math and Art in nature). Catching the light in the evenings with the sunset the wall will shine its pattern across the entire garden.

The individual sectors lining the path are shaped again to mimic the sectors outlined in the 'Golden Spiral'.  They are filled with various natural elements which show great Math and Art principles.
