Abstract

This visual essay explores the anatomy of model trees and the beauty evident in their creation. The aim is to explore the interpretive aspect that both drives and allows for this inventive exploration of trees. The authors highlight the important interplay between landscape, botany, architecture, art, and design, all of which will aid readers in formulating their own vision of trees.
