From one square meter to full view sized—
It’s more than just a garden
makeover.
Among thousands of gardeners in Japan, only few are allowed to make and take care of temple gardens. Makoto
Kitazawa, our head gardener who designs and installs all of our projects overseas, is a multi-awarded winner
of landscape contests both in Japan and abroad, while also being the gardener for Ninna-ji temple in Kyoto,
a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Having the utmost respect for traditional craftsmanship as the core of our projects, we, Rising Sun
Landscape and Design, consider communication with customers our top priority. To make sure that we
accommodate all your requests and that every issue is explained including the process of design, shipment,
and payment, your project will be exclusively handled by one of our experienced support specialists.
Please contact us if you are interested in getting an authentic Japanese garden for your place, at any size
from a square meter to a large, full-sized area. We will provide you with an outstanding experience and a
temple-quality garden with stones, bamboo, bonsai and gardeners shipped directly from Kyoto to you.

Requests from the owner:
The owner wanted a Japanese garden at the corner of their property, and asked for a solution to counter
highway noise.
Materials:
Water-filled bamboo tube called Shishi-Odoshi, Japanese stones from Kyoto, Japanese white gravel, local
plants
Description of the completed garden:
The design concept aims to create an oasis of calm amidst the towering urban center of Singapore. The
ground was covered with Japanese white gravel to provide a defined border from the hustle and bustle of the
outside world. At the center are carefully chosen Japanese stones and a traditional stone basin. The sound
of the little stream and water-filled bamboo tube blurs city noise, inviting a slower and quieter life.
*Using local materials is optional, too.
