The ‘green switch’ represents the space we inhabit when we ‘switch off’ from the stresses of contemporary urban life and seek the things we like to do, such as spending time in nature.
 
The intended atmosphere of the garden is one of openness. It features a two-storey structure, with a sedum-covered roof. In the upper storey is a tea room with glass walls and below is a parking space. A glass shower room is set to the side of the tea room.
 
Two waterfalls and a pond create differing reverberations and the ripples in the pool provide fluctuations of reflected flowers. The changing scenery of this Japanese garden presents new perspectives.
