A Sculpture garden is a Template:L defined around a Template:L or Template:L. A communal (non-assigned) garden is similar to a Template:L in that it provides a place for idle dwarves and animals to congregate and throw Template:L. However, there are some important differences

Advantages over Dining Rooms

The biggest advantage a Sculpture garden has over a Template:L is simplicity. Since dwarves are not going to eat in it, there is no need to build tables or chairs to accommodate them. As such, there is plenty of room to put in all sorts of Template:L Template:L, which can give your dwarves Template:L - furthermore, all furniture in a sculpture garden will be "tastefully arranged", presumably making dwarves even happier. As well, since only a statue or slab is required, it is easy to create a Sculpture garden outside. This is very useful to prevent Template:L and can double as a Template:L against Template:L.

Disadvantages

Unlike Dining halls, Sculpture gardens do not double as Meeting Halls, though it is possible to designate an overlapping Template:L. As well, dwarves tend to throw a lot of parties at Scuplture gardens. While this can be an effective way for dwarves to make Template:L, it also wastes valuable labor time. Thankfully, ending the party is as simple as querying the statue and freeing the room, though it does mean the room needs to be assigned again.

Private gardens

If a sculpture garden is private (assigned to a particular dwarf) then that dwarf will hang out there in preference to communal meeting places. This is useful if you want a particular dwarf to hang out at a particular place when idle or Template:L.
