Like a community of people, a forest is composed of many different parts. This complex arrangement of benches pays homage to the fallen tree, with its root system flaring upward towards the sky. When a tree comes down in the forest, it reintegrates itself back into the forest, nourishing the ground and opening the forest canopy to make way for new light. Each generation prepares fertile ground for the next.
Bench Tops - Cedar
Bench Legs - Elm from the tree which once stood on the property
