Treeline National Arboretum

Description: TREELINE a submission for the Heritage Vantage Point Westonbirt by Robert Barnes Architects, Buro Happold, Jurg Altherr and Ron Haselden
In order for visitors to comprehend the whole of the Historical Landscape of Westonbirt they need to understand and experience the spatial relationships between the House, the Downs, the Old Arboretum and Silk Wood. Only multiple vantage points allow such an appreciation and so the concept of Treeline is to provide such an extended and connected series of views. Designed to accommodate school parties of 60+, and allow a minimum of 100 people to gain a new perspective on the Westonbirt Arboretum, Treeline disperses these visitors and this experience over the landscape.
