They are a gift of the house to the outside world, for the people who pass by the house. Man gives voluntarily small territories of his dwelling space back to nature, from which we unlawfully appropriated and destroyed large areas. Behind the outside all and in front of the set-back windows, stainless-steel tubs were installed for three tree tenants.
The tree tenant tubs, which contain up to one cubic meter of dirt, have root baskets of thick stainless-steel rods so the roots can get a good hold.
