For a mountaintop home in southern Vermont, JMMDS enlarged an existing pond and simplified its shape, creating a swimming pond with artfully placed stone steps for entering the water at several points along its perimeter. A wide mown-grass path around the pond takes visitors past moss-covered boulders and large swathes of native plantings along the shoreline. Photos: Bill Sumner.
