The couple, both in their late 70s, expressed their wish for no grass to reduce the workload. They required a place to sit which would catch the sun but also provide a place for shade on very hot days.

I was asked to design and build a raised pond with an ample shelf on which to sit and admire the fish.

I encouraged the development of an original large border on the perimeter of the property to contain many species of shrubs with fruit and berries to attract birds and soften the hard landscaping.
