Before

Initial concept design

at 95% just before installing trellis/privacy screen/sculpture (see below)

New fruit trees and shrubs, cast-in-place benches, 3/8" steel edging and crusher Bocci ball court.  Putting green will also be resurfaced.  Can't wait for the vegetation to really fill in!

Climbing rose will be planted at the base...

study model

Sculpture & Courtyard

An abstract sunset.  On the ground plane below is equisetum that will fill in and grow to a height just below the sculpture creating a foreground field of tall bamboo-like grass.

The brick wall of the courtyard and its shadows inspired the patterning on the sculpture.

These photos were taken just after planting - the shrub growth is already filling in the corner and small succulents border a few of the cast-in-place pavers.
