猫を安心して遊ばせることが出来る中庭。 ウッドデッキ、モルタル、芝、土など様々な素材で五感を刺激し、室内飼いの猫たちのストレスを軽減。 木登りしたり走り回ったり隠れたりと本能的な行動を促すこともまた環境エンリッチメントの向上につながっている。 程よい間隔のルーバーフェンスは猫の脱走を防止しつつ、猫たちが外を眺めて楽しむことも出来る。

Poseidon Ponds & LandscapingPoseidon Ponds & Landscaping
This was a backyard renovation. There was an existing plastic tub pond with many perennials around it. We took out everything, saved as many perennials as we could and installed a new rubber lined, natural ecosystem pond, stream and waterfall. We redesigned the area and created a couple different seating areas along with a pathway over the stream. Transplanted the perennials and added a few new plants to add interest all year long. A year after installation we added an accent spillway bowl to the feature. They make great additions to existing water features or make great stand alone features. They can add extra movement to dead spots in ponds and more oxygen to the water. We put tropical plants in the bowl for extra filtration as well.

Balance, scale, and proportion are the foundations of this landscape, the perfect accompaniment to the historic home. Garden rooms surround the house, in a palette of deep greens, blues and white with enchanting views from every window. A dramatic rear terrace complete with a furnished outdoor kitchen, and dining and living spaces. The dimensional bluestone matches the bluestone cap of the seat wall, made of New England fieldstone.

A sunny, Mediterranean style garden with colourful features. With a grey porcelain tile patio, laid in stretcher pattern across the width of the garden directly outside the back door and to the right of this area, a wide raised bed constructed from treated softwood railway sleepers. A painted aluminium storage box at the end of the side return allows waterproof storage for kids toys and other garden items. The middle section of the garden features a wide yellow Balau hardwood deck stretching across the width of the garden, enclosed by a simple yellow Balau timber pergola at one end. This pergola will include a decorative panel along the back comprising horizontal slats of yellow balau decking. The rear of the space hosts a second grey porcelain patio with an L-shaped railway sleeper raised bed in the bottom left corner. The left hand boundary is clad with 150mm wide tongue and groove ‘Shou-Sugi-Ban’ Japanese charred timber wall cladding, installed vertically to create an eye-catching backdrop. The middle section of the left boundary is clad with yellow balau boards to match the decorative panel on the pergola. The left boundary wall at the rear is rendered and painted a vibrant turquoise shade. The rear right boundary beyond the pergola structure is clad with panels of Perspex ‘Naturals’. The rest of the boundary fences/walls are painted with Cuprinol Garden Shades garden paint. Two tall evergreen standard trees will provide screening along the back of the garden. Several GRP fibreglass planters will add an extra dash of colour to the design.
