Like I was saying at lunch, I'm interested in the ambiguity of the site. Standing in one spot, a person can feel either entirely protected or entirely exposed, depending on which direction they look.
That's one reason why I enjoy this tree. Sitting under it, a person feels entirely protected, yet entirely connected their surroundings. It provides enclosure, but doesn't obstruct one's view. In this sense, this tree acts as my metaphor for the entire site. I'd like my furniture to pick up on this metaphor.
The tree's right in the middle of the site, between the pile of unused rocks and the large retaining wall, towards the northern side of the tree grove.

At ground level, ie the perspective of a person sitting on a bench/chair/whatever, this grass is beautiful. It surrounds the site I'm looking at.
That's it for now
