Sandra owns the interior & exterior. A rare interior decorator knowing her work ends at the property line not the walls of the house.

Double Axis is an easy concept. Quit reading this and figure yours out !

Penelope Bianchi is the rarest. Interior Decorator doing Vanishing Threshold, Double Axis & la-ti-da multiple axis to a single focal point & etc....

When you realize these concepts are easy, historically correct, necessary to happiness/joy/grace, & affordable you will stop thinking in terms of what Garden Centers & Testosterone-On-Wheels-Mow-Blow-Go want to SELL you. Foundation plantings & lawn & seasonal annuals? OMG, worse than boring. Stupid, environmentally harmful, terrible for property value, & worst of all devastating to your inner muse. No, don't ask me what I really think, because I can go there too. And there waits the fabulous Puppet Barbuda.

Puppet Barbuda is always lurking in the background.....
ReplyDeleteGreat point about "work ends at the property line, not the walls". Conversely, that means the landscape designer's / architect's work ends inside the building!
I had the hardest time conveying this to an ex-client, a builder who built spec homes and rented/flipped houses...he never agreed, starting with exterior colors and doors. He is now struggling, in financial trouble, and I am not, never have been.
Oh dear I am having such a good giggle at the testostorone comment!! LOL So true,
