Zen + Water Feature + Stairs = Sketchup Model :)



 



  
 

I love water features as it's calming and creates a sense of relaxation.
This idea popped up as I was doing the sketchup model. I remember hopping over the stone blocks over in Darling Harbour when I was small and even to this day I see kids doing the same. It's simple yet surprisingly fun idea :)  
 
All things Zen and simple I just love. The triple stepped feature on each tread is inspired by various Zen ornaments I've seen previously. The idea is to have a continuous flow from the top side of the wall into the 'pond' and back up again hidden behind walls. The arched columns in part white add to the sense of simplicity and feeling of lightness.
 
I'm very proud of these set of stairs and I hope to incorporate it into my final model :)
