Here is an image of a building with a garden in Charlottenburg, Berlin. Observe the symmetrical layout of the garden and the architecture, reflecting a desire for order and control over nature. The repetition of arches and the structured arrangement of plants evoke a sense of harmony, a theme that resonates through time. We find echoes of this aesthetic in the colonnades of ancient Rome, symbols of power and civilization. Think of how the arch, initially a structural necessity, became a symbol of triumph, appearing in triumphal arches across empires. These shapes have an emotional resonance, tapping into our collective memory of grandeur and stability. The garden, too, is not merely a collection of plants, but a carefully constructed space reflecting humanity’s eternal quest to cultivate and shape our environment. This is the cyclical nature of symbols, reappearing, evolving, and speaking to us across the ages.
