Zuringla continued, “A group of us decided on a garden structured with stones from the rivers, aiming for an aesthetically colorful and vibrant result. During the garden’s construction, we noticed that the wall was making the area dull. This led to the idea of painting the wall with a traditional look. We used shaped broken tiles for the footpath connecting the garden. I hope the public can relax and enjoy the garden while maintaining its sanctity. I encourage everyone to avoid littering around the DC campus.”
