Step into the enchanting world of Patina Garden Studio, where a delightful journey awaits both children and adults alike. As you wander through the mesmerizing sculpture garden, a path will lead you to a remarkable sight—a floating platform adorned with a graceful, translucent object that seems almost like an ethereal sculpture.

Patina Garden Studio’s Design Concept
Inviting you to explore its secrets, Patina Garden Studio beckons you to step inside through a corner sliding door. Once you enter, the rhythmic patterns of the wooden structure and the translucent walls envelop you in a dance of shimmering light and gentle shadows, creating a soothing ambiance filled with the comforting scent of Japanese cedar.
The exquisite craftsmanship of the wooden structure perfectly frames picturesque views of the garden, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. With every step, you’ll feel a seamless harmony between architectural design and woodwork, transforming the Patina Garden Studio into a haven of wonder and creativity.

Venturing further into the interior, an upper floor beckons you to embark on a journey of exploration. Ascending a ladder, you’ll find yourself on the gable roof, offering a unique, more enclosed room that connects to the outside world through a thrilling giant slide on one side and an exciting exterior climbing wall on the other.
