The Somerset is amazing since it’s totally made out of aluminum. This beautiful outdoor trellis is constructed of 2”x10” cross members with custom designed ends all protected by aliphatic urethane paint. The Somerset adds a nice architectural focal point to any garden or pool.

This small inner city residence get a modern landscape update from front to back. The front garden design included the use of low, stone clad columns and an iron rail fence to help separate the public street from the private residence. Clean, simple lines between the lawn area and planting along with the use of ornamental grasses create an inviting entry to the property. The new stainless steel front door acts as the focal point and sets the tone for the use of stainless steel in the rear garden. The rear garden features a modern cooking and dining area complimented with a conversation seating area complete with built-in seating, linear fire pit, planters, overhead shade structure and cable wire railing. The deck steps down to a lower grassed area for the family pet and entry to the garage. A decorative modern fence provides a screen to the rear alley and surrounding neighbors while new trees were added to soften up the landscape and provide added shade.

This unique garden keeps you guessing of what fun surprise you'll see next. It's a combination of sculpted plants, southern charm, traditional comfort, with a modern twist.

Inspiration for a mid-sized front yard landscaping in Wellington.

This stunning rooftop oasis in Manhattan’s Flatiron District is anything but flat with its swimming pool, outdoor shower, built-in kitchen and planters, and cobalt blue accent planters. All of this can be yours, too, since this spacious penthouse apartment is currently on the market for $18 million. The plantings include accents of gold, which pair strikingly with the bright blue ceramic pots. We chose a combination of structured looking plantings like Steed hollies, arborvitaes, boxwoods, and ‘Gold Sword’ yuccas, all of which create a high contrast look against the looser and more informal look of plantings like blue and white violas, gold mop cypresses, and weeping ‘Blue Atlas’ cedars. All of the planters contain low-voltage landscape lighting and drip irrigation. See more of our projects at www.amberfreda.com.
