This section of front yard between the driveway and the property line is often a throw-away zone, a forgotten opportunity between neighbors. This garden serves as a meeting ground, as well as giving autonomy and a sense of ownership to one's turf. High plants screen from stark views of the neighbor, yet their charming cottage frames the view.

Ron specializes in creating that feeling of pride of ownership, beginning with the first glimpse of the home as the owners pull into the drive. Balanced, properly massed, warm and inviting.

This backyard space used to effectively be half this size. In an earlier stage of the properties ownership... a large garden space was fenced in and lay fallow. Now, this large lawn is well used by a Boxer puppy and its owner. An architectural slab paver walkway connects the patio space and the hobby shed. Photography by: Joe Hollowell

The couple's youngest son, Major, is the only Novogratz with his own room. Although he is only five years old, the couple resists going the traditional route of theme decorating. Instead, pieces are thoughtfully considered to give the kids an environment that they can respond to now, but grow with into the future. Here, a portrait of Major by photographer Catherine Hall imbues the space with a sense of ownership. The striped rug teams with a bright red side table and over sized pendant to offer a stimulating environment without being overwhelming.

THEME Doors are a visual frame to the entrance of a great room. This highquality, personalized element adds fun and interest to the room before it is even entered, and provides a great introduction for any theme. FOCUS The half-door offers unique access to the room, providing a true feeling of ownership for the child and peace of mind for parents. The top half of the door swings separate from the bottom, maintaining great ventilation and a clear view into the room. GROWTH The doors look beautiful and function normally for many years. SAFETY The doors easily replace unsightly baby gates and provide the same level of restraint, without the footholds or slats often used by children to manipulate or climb gates. Solid wood core birch construction keeps sound out (or sound in) when the door is closed, while a sliding gate lock safely secures the bottom half, and makes opening the top half simple.

Our client had just taken ownership of a new development home. The standard builder fence wasn't tall enough to provide sufficient privacy, however as it was new and sandwich tightly between two poured sidewalks, I came up with this design to build off the existing fence but keep with the square lattice theme that is utilized throughout the house's yard space.
