Sust Tech Planting Initial Ideas

In yesterday's lecture we began to look at planting plans for our designs of barnwood arboretum. My plans will be focused on the green roof for the orangery that is at the back of my amphitheater. Whislt I haven't yet explored individual plant species I looked at how drift of colour could be used to create drama which I want as it will be at the end of the park's central avenue.

Quick Concept

In yesterday's lecture we had a quick task to develop a concept for a courtyard garden with a simple brief and a starting object. There was a selection of objects and I chose a rectangle. From this I developed an idea that the rectangle had landed from space hundreds of years ago and for some reason had an infinite source of water and was a source of life on earth. The object would be a dark black smooth stone contrasting with a damp and misty surrounding temperate rainforest environment that is contained by the courtyard walls.
