## Container water-storage revision — 10 September 2026, v005
Marcus asked to make the water tanks a shipping container. Replaced the exposed cylinders with a dark-green 20-foot container-style module (approximately 6.06 × 2.44 × 2.59 m), retaining two sealed water tanks inside. Added corrugated walls, cargo doors and locking bars, corner castings, inlet/outlet manifolds, pump and a first-flush component concept. The container enclosure is not itself the water-retaining vessel. The west end is a transparent inspection cutaway. The garden service path reaches the east cargo doors. Updated tour chapter 13, the plan and exterior/cutaway/overview renders. Product selection, structural/loading checks and hydraulic sizing remain future design work.
## Garden Buddha — version 006, 10 September 2026
Added a seated weathered-limestone Buddha on a low stone plinth north of the meditation pavilion, facing east into the shared garden court. The statue has a draped robe, folded hands, lowered eyes, elongated earlobes and a carved topknot. Position (-12.4, 15.35), clear of both the room and curved walking route. Added a lightweight viewport proxy and chapter 31 to the Play tour (2 min 35 sec total). The scene opens on the statue. Existing house, container water module, future shadows and landscaping remain intact.
