We have designed a garden based upon characteristics of two powerful elements in nature: water and sun. The geometry that water naturally exudes shall be illustrated with the patio/walkway that surrounds a central pool. This walkway will feature concentric circles, formed from terracotta piping, to emulate the ripples made when a droplet disrupts the surface of still water. A fountain sculpture will pulse in the heart of our garden. The linear nature of the suns rays will be a theme that is echoed throughout the garden. Decking that radiates off of the central patio and the linear adornment of the garden wall represents rays of light bouncing this way and that. Varied plant choices will complement our theme with their form, color and texture. This design pays homage to all the ripples and rays that bring a garden to life.
