The Ribbon

Transitional Garden

The "ribbon of boulders”, which is reminiscent of nature and its flowing form, defines the upper and lower tiers of this transformative landscape. The boulder ribbon creates the impression of an unending journey, thus forging a sense of continuity. Colorful perennials bloom throughout the season, attracting a symphony of pollinators and creating an intoxicating scent. In the backyard, this overgrown and unappreciated lovely stone house was barely visible through the brambles. It now features prominently and provides context for the bluestone fire pit seating area. Repeating the bluestone journey, the front walkways reinforce the emotional response of curves used thoughtfully throughout the landscape. A circle of bluestone, within a circle, within a circle was crafted in the driveway turn around to showcase a seasonal planter that welcomes you home.
