The space, I have it divided into "full" and "empty". The so-called "full" is that part of the surrounding wall. The so-called "empty", refers to the part of the wall enclosure. The "full" and "empty" actually reflect the philosophy of a subtle thing between the dialectical relationships. The space, it more emphasis on the atmosphere of the feelings, it is a man-made creation of the art, since the natural beauty of space, but it can leave the natural space body, and become one with nature. People in the room achieve the fullness and enrich, and guide with unlimited reverie. Creative space should be reflected in the space given to the "mood". In the shaping of space, space given geographical, ethnic, historical and age, religion and culture, the soul of a space, which is the most difficult task and is the most important responsibility.In the mood embodied in the garden as a "spiritual space" creation, it is the "full" and "empty" philosophical thinking reflected, and the formation of Daoism gardens reflects their thinking is the best employ.
