Westlake Star Axis/Seven Hills

Westlake Star Axis/Seven Hills is a public art installation located in Westlake Park, Seattle, designed by artist Robert Maki in collaboration with landscape architect Robert Hanna. Created in 1988, the installation features sculptural elements that symbolize the seven hills on which Seattle was built, enhancing the park's connection to local history and geography.

The centerpiece of the design includes a 24-foot high stone proscenium arch and a cascading fountain, complemented by a patterned granite paving that visually extends the park's space. This permanent public art collection, funded by Seattle Parks and Recreation, invites visitors to engage with the shifting perspectives created by its multiple sightlines and angles.
