ABOVE: This waterfall feature proved to be the perfect place for the clients'
charming statue in their backyard. Not only does it look lovely, it also creates a
peaceful ambience with the sound of the water.
TOP, CENTER, AND BOT TOM: We designed the entire backyard expanse of this
magnificent estate, which sits on Lake Burton in Georgia, for the owners to beer
enjoy the water. We put in stone pathways from the main home to the dock and
boathouse, ensuring our new additions complemented the 100-year-old wall seen
in the boom photo. We also created an outdoor room with a stone wall and
fireplace along with seating areas. Artful layers of foliage and plants add in natural
abundance and beauty throughout the entire scene.
FACING PAGE: I like to think of flowers and plants like paint on a canvas, carefully
layering in colors and textures to optimize the effect. We're also mindful of
seasonal varietals — and what the landscaping will look like when the flowers
aren't blooming — creating outdoor spaces that make sense for all seasons.
