Copy Precedent

Researching a sleeping porch I went straight to, An Affair With A House, by Bunny Williams.

 Simplicity, roof line, methods, lattice, doors, heights, colors, interior, exterior & etc.
Initial thoughts were Chinoiserie lattice.  Studying Bunny's book, and others, chose rectangular lattice.
.
'Our' porch won't have solid panels at the bottom of the walls, they will be rectangular lattice.
.
COPY, it's the most important rule of Landscape Design.
