Saturday, August 8, 11:00am to 12:30pm | Englewood | Pondbank House by Herb Schaal, FASLA, with architect Don Ruggles of Ruggles Mabe Terrell Architecture, landscape contractor Philip Steinhauer of Designscapes, and general contractor Jeff Barnett of J.K. Barnett, Ltd.
In keeping with the grand Palladian architectural style of the Pondbank House, the landscape architect has created an impressive series of complementary Mediterranean garden spaces using local stone for terracing and High Plains adapted plants. In addition to a kitchen and cutting garden and diverse planting schemes featuring over 250 species, there are many delightful pieces of garden art and creative garden details. Decorative fountain walls distribute roof and storm drainage to terraced plantings. An infinity lawn edge creates a “ha-ha” effect from the pool terrace to the borrowed landscape in the distance. A lovely moon gate leads to a secluded Japanese-style spa garden, an “aromabo” for contemplative relaxation and outdoor aromatherapy. And a shallow water basin in the strolling garden is positioned to reflect the rising moon.

Photographer Raul Garcia perfectly captured the balanced lighting effects of the backlit mirror and floating vanity. The wall was grazed, emphasizing the textured tiles with light and shadow.

Lighting or illumination is the deliberate use of light to achieve a practical or aesthetic effect. Lighting includes the use of both artificial light sources like lamps and light fixtures, as well as natural illumination by capturing daylight. Day-lighting (using windows, skylights, or light shelves) is sometimes used as the main source of light during daytime in buildings. Proper lighting can enhance task performance, improve the appearance of an area, or have positive psychological effects on occupants.
Indoor lighting is usually accomplished using light fixtures, and is a key part of interior design. Lighting can also be an intrinsic component of landscape projects.

This private residence in Toronto has the distinction of being the first building in North America to be conceived and built from the ground up using the principles of BioGeometry®.
Built to the highest standards, it is a true “green” building, green in the context of being true to nature and sensitive to Earth’s demands. The application of BioGeometry® has created a habitat that promotes a frequency of optimum health and well-being for the occupants.
Blending with the neighbouring houses (as required by the Building Department) and built with natural materials, this home is a beacon of health, affecting the surrounding neighbourhood. The BioGeometric principles used in the design and construction allow the house to have a positive effect on pollution and on any deleterious EMF emissions caused by high-tension wires and cellphone towers.

To add a unique focal point along the back wall, we opted to paint a half-accent wall with a soft grey paint. Then we positioned a woven cane bed with black metal nightstands on either side directly in front of it. The headboard introduces a cane texture that is seen in other areas throughout the home for a cohesive feel. Above the headboard, we installed two pieces of artwork that slightly overlap the accent wall to create a unique, layered effect.

This image shows a tilt-turn window in the tilt mode for ventilation. Notice the controlled ventilation of the open window creates a chimney effect air exchange for efficient and secure ventilation. The vented window can be left in this position night or day or turned in for easy cleaning or egress needs.

The living room exudes a sense of vibrant comfort. The spaciousness invites you to relax and spread out, while the large blue couch beckons you to sink in. A warm glow emanates from the space, thanks to the ample natural light. The eye-catching artwork adds a touch of playful energy with its mix of styles and colors.
There's a hint of sophistication in the artwork's bold design and pops of color, but the overall feeling is more welcoming and fun. It feels like a place where you can unwind and enjoy conversations with friends, or simply curl up with a good book on the inviting couch.

Pay Attention to Safety. When installing lighting fixtures, it is crucial to prioritize safety. Always choose lighting fixtures and electrical wires that comply with safety standards and have them connected by professionals. Additionally, the installation location of the fixtures should also consider human safety factors, avoiding placing them directly above head or in positions where they can be easily touched or bumped into.

Positioned off the Great Room, the Library nook is a perfectly suited place to dive into a good book. The double-sided fireplace and exaggerated ceiling height creates a very dramatic effect and plays off the modern style very nicely. The high ceilings and clerestory windows flood the room with natural light. One of the keys to a dramatic and neutral space is contrast. The contrast between the black bookcases and the soft white walls makes for the perfect Library. Photography by Emily Milton Redfield.
