Bathroom - cottage bathroom idea in San Francisco

Like many, this family spends a lot time in the back half of their home. Built in 1988, the kitchen and family room were cramped and dimly lit. With this remodel, they wanted a larger space to provide both an updated gourmet kitchen and a family room suitable for entertaining. While unsure of what new products and current styles to incorporate, these empty-nesters definitely had some notions of what they didn’t like although they didn’t always agree. They wanted the two rooms to flow comfortably and to present an integrated design. Voila – an entertaining space was born and they absolutely love it! Clarity Northwest Photography: Matthew Gallant

This Fish Pond Rebuild project consisted of removal of an existing pond. All rock, liner, and pond implements were removed. We were able to salvage the pond skimmer and some of the rock for reuse. All other implements were replaced and upgraded with current Aquascape pond products. The newly installed pond is a complete Aquascape ecosystem system. In place of the biofalls we constructed a wetland filtration system. The pond was roughly excavated to 11”x 16′ at its largest and has a wetland and waterfall area at the top. The wetland area and pond were outfitted with aquatic plants. The aquatic plants will help to further filter that water in the wetland area as well as the pond. After the new pond was installed we touched up the surrounding landscape and re-seeded the disturbed areas or lawn. This Project was installed in Lancaster, PA.
