Designed by the famed American sculptor Isamu Noguchi in 1980, this is a remarkable landscape tucked between office two towers and a parking garage. The landscape is meant to represent the varied landscape of California and is inspired by Japanese garden structure, with an array of contrasting elements: natural and formed objects; mounds and flat spaces; wet and dry; etc. The garden succeeds in recalling many natural landscapes of California both literally and figuratively.
