The main part of the garden is square in shape. The garden is lined with a small stone wall, with steps on each corner leading into the center part. There is one large band of grass following the inside of the lawn, with benches along each wall. On the opposite side of the grass, the garden is then separated with more pathways, portioning it into four triangular sections. In each of the sections, an abundance of plants grow, filling the garden with different colors and various textures. In the center of the square is a small stone structure, similar in resemblance to a water fountain. Outlining the various grass sections are small stone strips, which add dimension and aesthetic to the garden. The role of this garden is to not only be a place of beauty and aesthetics, but also to be one of social interactions, evoking sight and movement.
