Asian Landscape, Minneapolis

The client needed to correct drainage issues in their front yard and also improve the overgrown side yard. The design opportunity became incorporating a dry creekbed from the point of roof run-off, through the side yard and out beyond the backyard. A meandering stepper path of rounded river jacks crisscrosses the creekbed. Large glacial slabs act as footbridges where path and creekbed intersect. Bamboo screens follow the path nestled amidst shady plantings. Back at the front entry, decorative posts were replaced with a heftier design incorporating new light fixtures. Overall, pragmatically-solving drainage issues also brought a new landscape experience to the property.
