Japanese Garden Delft

Japanese Garden Delft
Yokoso Japanese Gardens was in charge of designing a private Japanese garden in Delft, Holland. The garden is 6 meters wide and 30 meters deep. Because of this relatively long distance, the design focused on dividing the garden into two separate areas. The first area, being the one closer to the house, will become an extension of the Bonsai studio and will also serve as a show garden. The Japanese garden section of this area features a white pine, unique Japanese rocks and stones and an elegant Nuresagi Gata lantern. Opposite of this, a Tsukubai arrangement will be created featuring a Shikoku stone Tsukubai and an Oribe lantern.

The second area of the garden design is at the back of the garden and is meant for recreation with the family and kids. The two areas are divided by a combination of wooden constructions. Two of the structures are cubes with a round space inside, mimicking a ‘moon gate’. This space can be used to lie down or for children to play in. Equipped with a few soft cushions they will make a wonderful spot to relax while watching the children play or reading a book, while enjoying the garden. The third cube will be a shed for the garden tools and other equipment.
