Pooktre Artists

How much do we like if our furnitures are also trees? A tree which is also a chair, a tree which is also a coffee table, and trees that have the shape of people. This is exactly what two people have done in Australia and have named their art as Pooktre. These artists are Peter and Becky who have designed their garden in different shapes of furniture using trees. This is similar to a topiary which is also design using shrubs and leaves in different shapes of animals, birds, etc.
They have used wild plum trees for their design and carefully guide their growth so that they get the required shape. Even though it takes some years to shape the trees in the various shapes, the idea is very much new and the outcome is superb. Their garden is just like visiting a dreamland from some of the English fairy tales. They even have a website called Pooktre and have some wonderful photos of the trees uploaded form their garden. But one thing for sure, this one is for people who like art and outdoors much.
