Diseño Jardín Seco (Karesansui) en Jardín Japonés, Cerro San Cristobal PMS / Santiago Japanese Garden Karesansui Design

El desafío de poder llevar a cabo un buen jardín seco a mayor escala está en cuidar de los detalles.

 

En Chile no somos conscientes del valor estético que una roca puede tener. Esto trae como consecuencia una falta de pulcritud, precisión y tecnología entorno a la instalación de piedras de gran envergadura.

A pesar de esto, y de asumir los primeros errores, se concreta en el acceso del Jardín Japonés del Cerro San Cristóbal, el primer karesansui (jardín seco) en dicho lugar. 

I took the decission about design a dry japanese garden as challenge. In Chile, we don´t have the same relationship between the rocks and human being as japanese people. Stones or rocks doesn´t mean symbols or beliefs to chilean people, is just one object to use as urban equipment or decorative purposes.

Thus, when I began to decide about the groups of rocks the requeriments were high to them (Construction Company) about specific colors, texture, shapes, dimension, proportion and scales it was difficult find the rocks and later locate them. However, all that situation in the future changed.
