The tranquillity of traditional Japanese gardens has fascinated the entire world. These places of meditation, where one can calm the mind in natural silence, are hidden within the courtyards of ancient estates and monasteries. A fabric by E.Miroglio EAD - Miroglio Lana opens the large square doors, revealing glimpses of lush vegetation beyond. One walks slowly among blooming cherry trees, symbols of life, which gently welcome good thoughts, like Gritti 1924 buttons. In the pond, large green leaves float like trays, collecting crystal-clear water in droplets and bubbles, reminiscent of a Eurostick fabric. The waters ripple only with the passage of koi fish at the surface, their scaly skin shimmering like the sequins on an E-Style fabric. A small stream flows into the pond, winding its way through the garden beneath dense foliage. Crossing a red bridge, like a ribbon by Nastrificio Angelo Valera, one reaches a secluded spot for reflection and prayer. Small stone artifacts are surrounded by a fabric by Seride. Resuming the walk, the stream emerges from the lush habitat of an Orsini fabric, its gentle flow soothing the spirit during the visit. Metaphorically, its flow is represented in Zen gardens, where gravelly, rough soil — like a Tessilgodi fabric — is shaped into circles and waves to focus the mind in meditation. While the variety of flowers often catches visitors' attention, water remains the silent protagonist of these spaces. Its vital importance is contemplated through the many forms it takes. In a quiet corner, a fabric by Tessuti di Sondrio - Marzotto Group observes the water collected in a stone bowl. Beneath a cloud of Montorfano lace, the water reflects the spirituality of these spaces for introspection and contemplation.
