In the spring edition 2017 of the magazine GartenTräume the author Kathrin Foerst presents the newest public garden by Peter Janke. In the historic setting of Fasanerie Palace (Eichenzell near Fulda) Peter Janke designed a strictly geometric garden with accentuated natural planting. He combines his design concept with two steel cultures specifically created for this garden by the minimal artist Stefan Siebers from Cologne.
