Here is the first phase of the orchard and vegetable garden finished. All of the dry stacked walls are up, pathways through the orchard and vegetable garden are finished and the play house is set. Eventually fruit trees will be planted, a fence and gate will be put in around the vegetable garden and a fire pit/patio will be installed by the curved boulder wall. Photo by Cory Mann

Living room - country black floor living room idea in San Francisco with a standard fireplace and white walls

Scott & Catherine Buley, HTT&T, High Tech Turf & Trees, LandscapeMakeover.biz, Rain Garden Nursery. Weeping Norway Spruce, and a Holly tree. Weeping Blue Atlas Cedar is to the far right on the corner of the property's NW corner off two streets. Will eventually form a gorgeous Arch Entry. We will add a photo of our similar Arch at the EMCSWD Learning Center in North Portland, shortly.

This door was a swinging door into a massive butlers pantry. We removed the door and then enlarged the doorway and mimicked The existing arch in foyer. This home is a Plantation style and open concept was not an option. However, we can still achieve wider sight line to open up and bring in light. The butler pantry will have the wall removed eventually, to make way for a massive professional, yet vintage kitchen!!

A Texas Farmhouse Honors Both Past & Present A rustic, yet refined Texas farmhouse by Architect Michael Imber is on the cover of the May/June Issue of Luxe Houston & adorned throughout the exterior with handcrafted copper lanterns from Bevolo. Airy, light-filled, & set amid ancient pecan and sycamore tree groves, the architect's use of materials allows the structure to seamlessly harmonize with its surroundings, while Interior Designer Fern Santini's clever use of texture & patina, bring warmth to every room within. The result is a home built with a true understanding and love for the past. http://ow.ly/CgA530kBzUs

Two artificial lawns are divided by stone stepping pads and two offset Bloodgood Japanese Maple Trees. The hanging baskets are centered on the living room and boast seasonal color as well as ivy that will eventually cascade as it grows.

Plantings along the path add color and texture and eventually layering with mature heights.

The use of custom built-ins instead of a tradition dresser lend themselves to the clean aesthetic of this room as well as offer the opportunity to display personal artifacts.

A wood pergola gives some much needed shade on this sunny rooftop garden in Harlem. As the wisteria vines grow, they will eventually cover the top of the pergola with their fragrant purple flowers, making this the perfect urban oasis. See more of our projects at www.amberfreda.com.

Breezeway between the house on the right and garages on the left. The slab will eventually be covered with granite tile.

Steep entry stairs and an entry window look onto these lighted metal spheres with glass 'leaves' by artist Jesse Kelley. The grass groundcover will eventually fill in tightly. The metal trellises obscure concrete pilings. Flowering evergreen vines are climbing the trellises

When a builder takes pride in his work, the little things he does may go unnoticed, but they eventually serve to remind you of his commitment to quality. Here you not only see a design in the shingles but the vented soffit in the roofing system improves attic ventilation and minimises moisture.

Front yard for number 23 we installed a block letterbox with a hedging garden behind the wall to eventually grown along the wall.
