Elevated pathways guide visitors to a daybed platform, offering a restful retreat surrounded by greenery. The asymmetrical social platform and seating, inspired by childhood dens, beckon with their playful and inviting design. The sanctuary’s boundaries are crafted as wildlife habitats, using fallen trees and reclaimed timber to naturally enclose the space.
