Transcript

So here we have this garden that we've designed some time back. In this garden, we took an advantage of the fire zones we were just talking about. We wanted to separate the public and private area to have the sense of entry transition. And we accomplished this by placing the heavy Red Bull temper Arbor and also creating a step which gives you an additional sense of entering a different area, a different space, it's a psychological trick. Now we have the second zone. This is entry walk wide enough where two people can stand side by side comfortably and walked away in.

Remember, the front garden entry is going to be the first introduction to the client's garden, the values and the aesthetic criteria of your client. Another advantage of the elevation by the entry it gave us an opportunity of creating another entity In the area for the client, so we established a larger landing to create a sense of spaciousness, and then it goes to the walkway. The stone we have selected is complimentary to the color of the roof shingles and also to the house colors. Be also careful about the position of any seating area as per the amount of sun. So then we have this border area so we did low planting and also a tree, kind of a vertical element that creates almost protecting effect. Now we arrived to zone three which is the entry floor is large enough for about four to eight people.

And that sense of entry is critical in establishing the front garden. And this is the remaining area of the small front garden where we created a little barbecue in area with some seating. We did some low seating walls that help to direct people as well. We've created another Arbor to frame the view and also created more of a privacy and also planting around to soften it up. And then here is the actual barbecue area so it's a bit away from the seating area because of the smoke. So this is what the front garden is about, you really want to create a welcoming valuable space.

I hope this was helpful and I'll see you in the next lecture.
