The villa dead tree landscape refers to a garden or courtyard design feature that incorporates dead or decaying trees into the landscape. This design style often aims to create a natural, rustic, or serene aesthetic. Dead trees can be left standing for aesthetic purposes, to provide habitat for wildlife, or to evoke a sense of timelessness and history. They can be strategically placed to frame views, create focal points, or contrast with living elements of the garden. This concept is popular in Japanese garden design and naturalistic landscaping.
