A gated community, Lady of the Lake created a private world. Maintaing canopy/understory trees, flowering shrubs, perennials. The drive is simple, elegant, inviting, and crunches 'welcome'. Don't kid yourself. This natural view is as designed as any landscape.
Further along the gravel drive. The gate with 'found' wooden handle setting a tone. Vines adding lushness in a tight spot. Notice the stain color. It is used on fencing, decking and home. Color unifies simply.
Lady of the Lake's front door from inside. Her cabin is tiny, on purpose. She built a guest cottage so she could keep her home small.
Looking into her frontdoor from outside. A double axis. Both views great.
One angle from masterbedroom. All of the windows have woodland views and many have lake views. Lady of the Lake asked for a tiny bit of garden design help. Her garden on tour in a few days. The only change needed was removing a few signs with words. Words on signs in a landscape keep it static, not letting the mind flow. Of course there are exceptions.

ReplyDeleteTell me, please, 3rd photo from top - - - are the French doors painted gray???
Yes, they are indeed gray. The exterior is stained gray and the flow is beautiful.
