Thesis Book - Seeds of Hope

CONCEPT
Portland Japanese Garden’s new Cultural
Village is a modest, human-scaled set of
buildings arranged around a courtyard plaza,
whose fourth side is the existing, untouched
gardens from the 1960s. The project is a village
positioned along a journey from the city to the
top of the hill, a form of modern monzenmachi
wherein the pilgrimage pays homage to the spirit
of nature.
