Photographer: Tom Crane Made of 300, 10-foot steel blades set upright 8 inches apart, the award winning Cor-Ten Cattails Sculptural fence was designed for a home in Berwyn, Pennsylvania as a yard sculpture that also keeps deer out. Made of COR-TEN, a steel alloy that eliminates the need for painting and maintains a rich, dark rust color without corroding, the fence stanchions were cut with a plasma cutter from sheets of the alloy. Each blade stands 8 feet above grade, set in concrete 3 feet below, weighs 80-90 pounds and is 5/8 inch thick. The profile of the blades is an irregular trapezoid with no horizontal connections or supports. Only the gate has two horizontal bars, and each leaf weighs 1200 pounds.

Recently my Mother lost the use of her legs. We completely remodeled her bathroom, removing an obsolete deep tub that was impossible to get in and out of for seniors. Her tub area was transformed into a wheelchair accessible shower and a small traditional tub was added where the tiny shower used to be. A reclaimed wood table became the vanity top with room for her wheelchair and we installed two semi recessed sinks for easy access. Hats and art from her travels to China still grace the walls, along with a shutter I found at Decor Direct, a crazy store here in Sarasota with Asian, ethnic goodies. It appears that we have a window in the bathroom. She loves the ability to still shower, even if in a shower chair. personal iphone photo

A small garden at the rear of a Grade II Listed property was extended beyond the original boundary after the client purchased the derelict and overgrown plots beyond. The original lawned garden space was redesigned as a courtyard using reclaimed yorkstone and a more contemporary 'secret garden' was created beyond the wall. A sunny chill out zone was created for the family to relax in, and a productive garden includes fruit trees and raised beds for growing vegetables.
