This client had an unusable back yard with a steep slope going down to the canal. They requested an outdoor entertaining area with a sleek, contemporary fire feature and a smart correction to better utilize the grade challenges. We also incorporated a lush privacy hedge barrier and dog run for their three rescue dogs.

The owners love to spend time in their compact yard with family and friends. They are an avid gardener and a handy man. They continuously embellish their yard with pots and annuals, holiday decorations & vegetables. We took a completely unusable, small yard and made space for a covered dining patio with outdoor kitchen, a cozy sitting area, a fire pit sitting area with a rose-covered entranceway, large veggie beds, lots of fruit trees and vines. It's always exciting to see how well their plants are doing and what else they have added!

design: Carrie Preston (Studio TOOP), Carolien Barkman, Carien van Boxtel and Linda Hogeweg location: Elst, NL status: installation for the summer of 2014 photos: Jolanthe Lalkens For a temporary installation Carrie Preston of Studio TOOP collaborated with three other designers on the design of a folly. In the festival of follies, organized by the NVTL (Dutch Society of Landscape Architecture) each participant was allowed to work with the same standard materials and add one extra material to their individual design. Our chosen material was the dried seed heads of Alliums (ornamental onion flowers). We wanted to make a statement about ephemerality. The different size seed heads were used to make "lace" curtains. The Dutch title of the folly "BinnenKant" is a play on words and means both "inside" and "within lace". The folly plays with transparency and the experience of being within a space and connected to a larger landscape.
