Lakeside

A lake does not need decorating; it needs a way out onto the water. The cloud swing faces it from the grass, the boardwalk leaves the bank for three timber pavilions moored a few metres out — one table to an island — and ends in a timber A-frame that opens the whole lake in a single step. Back on shore, the flowering nest is kept for the ones who would rather just look.

  Timber light corridor

  At the end of the pier, its opening square to the lake: walk through the middle, or sit on the swing under the ridge.

  Cloud swing

  On the grass facing the water: two swings, a child on one, an adult standing in front of her.

  Pavilions on the water

  Three moored off the pier, each on its own short gangway; one table to a pavilion, six seats around it.

  Up close

  Nest of flowers

  On a timber platform, opening to the water; a seat to sink into, not something to climb.
