The meditation moon gate/day bed, reflective water feature and fire pit are all created from concrete pipes. Concrete was chosen as a feature material to reference the 'concrete jungle' we inhabit. Pipe dream has a blue/green colour palette with lime green highlights. The plants have been chosen to create an all-season garden which will hold its colour, shape and texture all year round. Pipe Dream is a place to stop, meditate, reflect and breathe. As this is easier said than done; one might call it a 'Pipe Dream'.
"PIPE DREAM is a hidden oasis in our busy city designed as an antidote to our epidemic of being time poor."
