Jane Harries Garden DesignsThe new lawn sweeps round the garden - the right hand side of the garden isn't complete yet as the guinea pig hutch still has a guinea pig inside! New planting of purples greens and greys. The sweeping shape of the lawn and the emphasis on the corner makes the shallow garden shape seem deeper.

Josh Wynne ConstructionI built this on my property for my aging father who has some health issues. Handicap accessibility was a factor in design. His dream has always been to try retire to a cabin in the woods. This is what he got.
It is a 1 bedroom, 1 bath with a great room. It is 600 sqft of AC space. The footprint is 40' x 26' overall.
The site was the former home of our pig pen. I only had to take 1 tree to make this work and I planted 3 in its place. The axis is set from root ball to root ball. The rear center is aligned with mean sunset and is visible across a wetland.
The goal was to make the home feel like it was floating in the palms. The geometry had to simple and I didn't want it feeling heavy on the land so I cantilevered the structure beyond exposed foundation walls. My barn is nearby and it features old 1950's "S" corrugated metal panel walls. I used the same panel profile for my siding. I ran it vertical to math the barn, but also to balance the length of the structure and stretch the high point into the canopy, visually. The wood is all Southern Yellow Pine. This material came from clearing at the Babcock Ranch Development site. I ran it through the structure, end to end and horizontally, to create a seamless feel and to stretch the space. It worked. It feels MUCH bigger than it is.
I milled the material to specific sizes in specific areas to create precise alignments. Floor starters align with base. Wall tops adjoin ceiling starters to create the illusion of a seamless board. All light fixtures, HVAC supports, cabinets, switches, outlets, are set specifically to wood joints. The front and rear porch wood has three different milling profiles so the hypotenuse on the ceilings, align with the walls, and yield an aligned deck board below. Yes, I over did it. It is spectacular in its detailing. That's the benefit of small spaces.
Concrete counters and IKEA cabinets round out the conversation.
For those who could not live in a tiny house, I offer the Tiny-ish House.

Stefano AssognaSuolo argilloso e tufaceo, assenza totale d'irrigazione, gestione e cura limitate a soli due interventi l'anno.
Nel mio giardino sperimento la resistenza delle piante mediterranee in terreni "sulla carta" non adatti. L'assenza totale d'irrigazione mi ha portato negli anni a selezionare le specie più resistenti alla siccità e a riproporle poi nei miei lavori.
La gestione si limita a due interventi di potatura suddivisi in uno a fine estate ed un altro a fine inverno. Il diserbo manuale delle infestanti è ridotto all'osso per via dell'allelopatia e della funzione di coprisuolo che hanno molte piante mediterranee.
Nonostante tutto le piante godono di ottima salute e per quanto la vivacità del giardino vada di pari passo con le precipitazioni, le sorprese non mancano mai.
Un giardino che aiuta a capire i ritmi della natura, facile da gestire e perfettamente replicabile.
Total Turf and LandscapesThis customer presented us with a problem area that was bothering them in their gardens. After installing a new section to their own gardens they now had a section that was not maintainable with their lawn mower. We came up with a beautiful solution that matches their unique flagstone flower be edging. This project came out great and fits the gardens perfectly.

Marilyn's Dreamscapes L.L.C.An unused space contained weeds and Arborvitae that has struggled where the sun was blocked. The area was cleared, the Arborvitae limbed up and a path created.

Eugene Garden DesignAFTER: New iron brackets and inexpensive hanging baskets are planted with a mixture of marigolds, petunias and other flowering annuals that will grow to fill and spill over the edges of the baskets for months to come. Total budget for this project with five new baskets, five brackets and all the plants came in just under $100.
Tara Dalton Garden DesignEight rectangular beds surrounded a sundial in pairs with four at either end of the sundial and grass paths between them. There were some poppies, lupins and verbena bonariensis and a couple of cistus and lavenders to work with. We lifted and divided lots of the existing plants and re-organiseed the beds, adding more lupins, nepeta, roses, poppies and grasses. Because we had reused many existing plants, this planting looked amazing the first summer after planting in late autumn.
