A study in disintegration and metamorphosis.

The fruit orchard....relaxed, acceptable....a megastructure manque

With wooden posts instead of trees....an orchard extended?

This is another kind of orchard...an artificial one if you like, it has servicing and lavatories in boxes and there is limited structure in the form of umbrellas from which things can be draped....
Alternatively...you can regard it as a conceptual orchard megastructure...or you can regard it as an ultimate sophistication of the earlier artificial orchard.

Here is a simpler version...with a mixture of the more elaborate and the less elaborate orchards...the trees creeping back, maybe?


Inevitably...an analogy - even a direct connection - can be made between the idea of the gentle orchard and the hidden service network...the rok-plug and log-plug syndrome...
Here is a small outcrop of the gentlest artificial/real orchard...
