My first wooden atelier has a garden, but this is a little bit more like a
postmodern garden, because it sits like a rectangle in front. It’s not classic. And, fifteen
years later, when I did my own house, I said, ‘Should this be an empty space, with
nothing in it?’ And then, via many talks with other people, it became clear that nature has
to be part of it. It shouldn’t be a pavement or a concrete slab or whatever; it should be
nature. And then I thought it should be really intense, like a jungle. And then, that the
building should be a closed facade wrapped around this jungle, so that you’d actually
walk around a tree, with the volume inside. So that’s what we have. (zdroj)

“…My work aims to bring nature back into human surroundings and this Pavilion provides the perfect opportunity for people to reflect and relax in a contemplative garden away from the busy metropolis…”
