Living landscapes that enlighten your space
ShanChuan Islands are interpretations of arts practiced in Asia since the 7th century, created to interpret the spiritual relationships between people and nature. Each sculpture is unique, and crafted to interpret both the owner and the space that it will inhabit. These miniature landscapes create an oasis of sight, sound, and touch.
Each Island is both individual and universal, design to communicate to everyone. Water flowing among ancient rock and growing plants reflect relationships among diverse cultures and generations.

ShanChuan Islands include tropical and subtropical plants adaptable to the indoor environment. To provide them with the proper level of moisture, water cascades to the plantings along the way through a series of waterfalls and pools. A silent, miniature pump hidden inside the rock lifts water from the tray back to the top of the mountain.

ShanChuan Islands are made from natural and recycled materials. Each rock is harvested from volcanic eruptions and selected for its density, color, and grain patterns. Handmade ShanChuan trays use Corian material reclaimed from remnants of kitchen and bathroom countertop installations.

Adding a fog maker enhances the natural tropical habitat for the plants and further conditions stale air. The porous volcanic rock is an ideal medium for essential oils such as cedar, fir, lavender, spruce, and vetiver, which adds the final sensory dimension.
