A hearty bravo to the brainwave. Then, overdose-on-a-theme, the roof !

Another bravo to whoever designed the interior of this home, from my favorite vantage point, the garden. Landscaping along the windows is a bit odd, glass rectangle edged with ferns, creating a terrarium'ish style. What to do instead? (First, replace sofa with a pair of similar styled chairs, that turn 360. Why the fortification of sofa only looking in?) Remove ferns & existing path, replace with bluestone rectangles, sized in width from outer edge of deck, fully to the house, scaled in length to each window, spaced the same distance apart as the window frames.

Color of patio chair, echoed inside with the bowl, and dark gray from chimney top to foundation.

Next. Axis looking into the home is marvelous. What is its opposite axis? Double axis. If you have a focal point in one direction you must have another in the opposite. Has me curious.

Lawn & large shrub at corner are thriving, sculptural.

Almost a Garden Design course in a single pic.

Notice the gutters at the roof line? Great example of darkish color rising up into the roof. Too often, gutters are painted much lighter than a roof, pulling the height of the roof lower. Another counterintuitive Garden Design layer.
