Charming insouciance. But not enough. If this were MY wood the gate stays, posts are replaced with split locust & the hideous new wire replaced with rescued old wire.

Dahlings. Really. Indeed. Informal wildwood landscape design is as serious as a designed formal potagere.

From Mirram-Webster, INSOUCIANCE: lighthearted unconcern.

You think an INSOUCIANT woodland walk in my garden is serendipitous?
.
Garden design is pairings: ying/yang, formal/informal, & etc..............

perfect insousiance!
I have absolutely no doubt that you are correct. It is always the unstudied that, in reality, was the most studied.
I love the gate, it is a good start. The rest of the fence sadly is in great need of work. Are you going to help the owner fix it?
Where can we get locust around here? In my growing up days my dad could find them in the woods and used them for piers in the lake.
www.RusticGardens.com, in north Georgia uses a lot of locust for his projects.
Wish this were my client, the wood is gorgeous. Posts? Not.
