A good view of the Arbor design as it is nestled into the garden plant material. As the season progresses the roof top plant material flourishes and blooms with colors that are prevalent throughout the design. We always consider the plant material color to the color of the building materials we use. Photo credits; Dan Drobnick

We were selected to create the gardens at the Washington Design House benefiting Children’s Hospital in Washington DC. Donating our time, and construction costs, we transformed a rundown and overgrown garden into a truly magical series of outdoor spaces. Since it was a “design house”, we decided to have some fun with our work, introducing a series of pea gravel “splashes” in the pond garden, enlivening the pool garden with brightly colored cushions and umbrellas, and giving the “dance floor” garden structure and interest by using Emerald Green Arborvitae columns and a mass planting of Rhododendron Roseum Elegance.

Mediterranean-inspired garden retreat. The natural stone patio, shaded by the majestic canopy of ancient oak trees, offers a cozy seating area perfect for unwinding. The elegant chairs and table, adorned with citrus for a touch of Mediterranean charm, reflect the serene simplicity of the space. Beyond the patio, lush greenery extends across a well-manicured lawn, leading the eye toward a border of vibrant plants and tropical banana trees. A glimpse of a terracotta-tiled garden structure in the distance adds architectural interest and blends seamlessly with the landscape. Trace Robinson’s design balances the tranquility of the natural world with the refined functionality of outdoor living, creating a haven for quiet reflection or lively gatherings.
