Harvest Table for 12, arbor, pendant lights, vines & hedges.  Done.

Copy, it's the 1st rule of Garden Design.
.
Fact, if a garden design was beautiful centuries ago.  It WILL be beautiful in your garden.

Al fresco dining.  Across continents, cultures, eras, humans are hardwired for Al Fresco dining.
.
Yesterday's Garden Design I completed includes 3 square teak tables.  They can be used individually or together as a harvest table.
.
Fixed seating, as some decks have, remind me of George S. Patton speaking of war, "Fixed fortifications are monuments to the stupidity of man."
.
Give yourself choices.
.
Another good one from Georgie,  "If you tell people where to go, but not how to get there, you'll be amazed at the results."                    .
