Zen Garden Courtyard Scene with Bonsai and Tea Set

This Japanese-style zen garden SketchUp scene features a curated courtyard with a feature pine, stone stepping stones, and a tea set. Centred on a meticulously arranged gravel courtyard, this scene captures the essence of a traditional Japanese garden. A large, gnarled pine tree serves as the primary focal point, complemented by smooth stone stepping stones and a small stone lantern. The perimeter is defined by white plaster walls topped with dark tiled roofing, while a wooden entrance door provides a warm contrast. In the foreground, a timber deck supports a simple tea set, creating a peaceful atmosphere. Low-lying greenery and carefully placed rocks complete the composition, ensuring a balanced and harmonious aesthetic throughout the space.
