PopUP Forest will be a temporary installation of woodland and wildlife in the middle of New York City. It’s hard to imagine, but almost 1/8 of New York is actually forests, marshes, and meadows. Yet not many city dwellers are aware of the existence of these places, and the latter are disappearing at rapid speed to make way for buildings and other urban developments. PopUP Forest wants to show New Yorkers the green beauty of their city by building a fully functioning forest right in the middle of Times Square. A successful Kickstarter campaign has allowed the project to go into its design phases, and the trees could pop up on NY city streets as early as May 2017.


This beautiful solid Western Red Cedar planter adds character and natural beauty to your outdoor space. Wood does not heat up like ceramic and plastic planters and therefore keeps the soil and plant roots cool, promoting plant growth.

Chris, as his company name says, is our new “Favorite Pool Guy”. He did an amazing job designing and building our pool! He was here through the entire process, from start to finish. We’ve had other pools built before, but this was by far the best experience ever! Chris listened to what we wanted and it came out exactly to our request. Chris was great at making suggestions that improved the final results. We couldn’t be more happier. We would, and have recommended Chris to everyone we know!!
We had the privilege to work with Chris on both the design and installation of our pool. My wife had very specific ideas that she wanted incorporated in the design. We were also facing some very strict parameters with easements. Chris carefully listened and incorporated all of our design requests. He also added features that greatly enhanced the design and function of our pool. He also provided thorough oversight of the entire installation. The end product was certainly beyond our expectations and the ongoing care that Chris has offered has been exceptional. We gladly recommend Chris to those who desire to have a great experience in both the design and installation of a new pool.

One Central Park was last week awarded the prestigious title of “Best Tall Building in the World” as voted by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) in Chicago, USA
Like most who see the show-stopping building for the first time, it made Juror and Executive Director of CTBUH, Antony Wood “… stop dead”.
He went on to add, “There have been major advances in the incorporation of greenery in high-rise buildings over the past few years – but nothing on the scale of this building has been attempted or achieved. One Central Park strongly points the way forward, not only for an essential naturalization of our built environment, but for a new aesthetic for our cities – an aesthetic entirely appropriate to the environmental challenges of our age.”
Tensile’s involvement included the design, engineering and installation of the green facades which cover 1800sq meters of the two towers. From the outset we knew One Central Park was going to be an amazing project, one which pushed the boundaries of what had been done before, or even thought possible.
Tensile is extremely proud to have been amongst those involved in creating this iconic building, amongst those that should be recognised include the facade team from Watpac; Junglefy; Design Landscapes; Dennis Bunt Consulting Engineers; Berry Design and Palamont Group.


Client: Town of Georgetown
THK Associates was retained in 2002 to facilitate a Gateway Master Plan for the Town of Georgetown. The project limits were approximately three-quarters of a mile of Argentine Street from the I-25 Interchange to Historic Downtown Georgetown. Residents felt the current entry to Georgetown to be very unsightly with typical strip development, allowing vehicular access to adjacent properties in a totally uncontrollable manner. The street currently does not provide any pedestrian facilities or an entry sequence to the town. Residents felt that visitors actually gave up looking for the historic downtown because Argentine Street provides no guidance or direction.
The Master Plan included moving the road 25’ west to accommodate tree lawns, sidewalks and controlled parking. Vehicular access was controlled by creating specific access points between landscape areas. Pedestrians were reintroduced to the street with walks on both sides of the street.
Since the inception of the master plan, THK has continued to assist the Town of Georgetown make the Gateway vision a reality. THK has completed construction drawings on Phase I of the project and the eastern streetscape from 15th to 11th Streets was constructed in 2008. In 2015, THK was contracted to completed 30% design on Phase II of the project bringing the streetscape from 11th Street south to 6th Street. In 2018, THK completed the construction documents for Phase II with anticipated construction in 2019. Utility coordination, relocation and undergrounding has been a major goal along the corridor. THK is currently under contract for Phase III of the project to complete the west side of the streetscape from 15th to 11th Street and the regional trail connection up Loop Drive.

Say Goodbye To The Downtown Silver Spring Public Fountain; Developers Moving Forward With Big Changes
On June 18th developers of the Downtown Silver Spring Shopping District will present to the Montgomery County Planning Board their requests for some major changes to the popular area.
The plans have been in the works for a while now, but the June 18 meeting will be one of the final steps before the shovel hits the ground and the current designs are gone forever. The fountain is the most popular and recognizable design element that will undergo changes.
The Downtown Silver Spring Project is owned by Rockville-based Foulger Pratt and Fairfax-based The Peterson Companies.
Officially known as Silver Creek by Deidre Saunder, the iconic fountain sometimes referred to as the Silver Fountain, has influenced several other mixed-use projects in the D.C. area including Rockville Town Center, Columbia Heights in D.C., and University Town Center in Hyattsville.
The Silver Creek mosaic tile fountain that has been used since 2004. Planning documents noted that the fountain was heavily used by the public throughout the years which required significant maintenance and replacement of mosaic tiles.
The dramatic changes to the Downtown Silver Spring project would extend from end-to-end of the portion of Ellsworth Drive where the project begins. Vehicular traffic would be denied access permanently and alterations to the gateway of the historic portion of the shopping center would also take place.
The planning board is recommending approval with conditions for the project.


Our plan for the Delaware River waterfront is moving toward the final stages. Inga Saffron of the Philadelphia Inquirer comments on the recommendations, including the proposal to fill Penn's Landing with a mix of housing, cultural uses, and shops.
Changing Skyline: Master plan for riverfront nearly ready
By Inga Saffron, Inquirer Architecture Critic
It's been almost a decade since Philadelphia started a long-overdue conversation about transforming the vacant acres along the Delaware River into a vital urban neighborhood. Yet, other than a single, suburban-style casino and some lonely high-rise condos, little change is visible on that bleak, postindustrial landscape.
The city now appears ready to stop talking and start doing.
After four decades of false starts and scattershot projects, consultants are putting the finishing touches on a detailed and focused master plan that will provide Philadelphia with step-by-step instructions for reinventing its waterfront. Now in its next-to-last draft, the plan was presented Tuesday night to neighborhood groups for what officials hope will be the final round of discussion.
Based on a presentation I saw last week, the most striking thing about the emerging master plan is the modesty of its ambition. At the same time, the proposals, even in their current rough form, appear more attainable than schemes floated in the past.
And that is mostly as it should be.

The different variety of paving materials that are available today include asphalt, cobble stones, a variety of bonds, different kinds of brick and stone to name a few of them. You can either get them installed professionally or do it yourself. Remember to keep in mind that whatever kind of material that you choose will have its plus and minus points. So it all depends on how much you are willing to spend on it and what kind of material you want.
This serves a couple of purposes, first, it give the base materials a good area to sit on, it allows water to pass through its gaps, and it is cheap. If you’re building yourself a patio from slate paving slabs, than you have another plus, if you go to a slate quarry or a place selling slate with access to their own quarry, you can buy both your stones and your sub-base at the same place.

"Municipalities as integrators and coordinators
in adaptation to climate change"
We are nearly at the end of the investment of a cleaned drinking water’s decanted water artificial reservoir in the Dózsa park, downtown Ruzsa. The multi-tiered bottom, the deliberate ecologically designed lake bed slowly fills up with water. The environment around the lake will also be recreated: the planting begins, the small cooking area is also designated and a BMX field is being created to meet the needs of young people. We would like to create a new community space in the town, which allows residents to spend their free time in the spirit of sustainability, water saving and adapting to climate change. Moreover, it would be a replicable model solution for other municipalities as well. Here on the Sand Plateau of the Danube–Tisza interfluve water is a treasure. So it is extremely important in this area that we retain water in the settlements in any form, with innovative and ground-breaking solutions, rethink water management and moving on this path.


Over the past few weeks Frome Town Council has been asking residents where they would like to see blossom trees planted as part of its Blossom Together survey
Councillor Anne Hills said: “We’ve received some great suggestions, with some really nice thoughts behind them.
"Whether it’s planting around some benches, adding a little colour to a pocket of land or even providing blossoming fruit trees for foraging, we are so pleased that so many residents got involved and shared their ideas.”
Wild About Trees officer Helen Viner said the ranger team are assessing each suggestion and looking at the options of what can be planted around the town.
Helen said: “We’ve loved all the ideas, and we’re currently looking at the locations suggested to see how we can spread the blossom joy far and wide across Frome when it comes to next spring, we’ll all be able to enjoy, whether we’re passing on our way to work or into town.
“A blossom circle at the Old Showfield was a favourite suggestion and will make a great feature, so we’re busy making plans and looking at designs.
"Watch this space!”


Published at Thursday, August 22nd, 2019 - 06:03:44 AM. Outdoor Lighting. By Rillia Beck.
While you’ll find conventional lights out there that mount to walls around the deck, or uprights on the deck, there are also styles designed to be mounted to the floor of the deck. These are generally flat in design, with disc-shaped LED lights that emit blue, cool white or warm white light depending on your goals and the overall aesthetic of your outdoor space. Some deck lights can be "daisy chained" together, and then the entire chain can be connected to a power source. There are also solar deck lights on offer if you don’t want to connect to the mains.
I’ve spent some time lately browsing and collecting Outdoor Lighting Ideas on Pinterest, Houzz, and Google Images to get inspiration for the hubby’s next project. I’ve come across a few images and project ideas that are just perfect for our garden and an excited to share these backyard lighting ideas with you!

The Virtual Green roof Summit Trailer
The trailer above gives you a taste of what to expect. The Virtual Green Roof Summit video presentation was filmed at John’s house in January 2015 and throughout the summer of 2014. Of course several of John’s green roofs feature and of course his wonderful garden.
What’s in the full video presentation?
The Virtual Summit presentation charts John and Dusty’s route to green roofs. From a shared passion for wildflowers and wildlife, to passion for sharing knowledge as thoroughly and as widely as possible.
They talk about soils, edge details, wildflowers, bees, pollinators and why small green infrastructure is something that the public can not only embrace but also achieve themselves. It will also features small buildings from sheds to outhouses and of course to freight container buildings.
With a little guidance.
Friends will be the there too.
The Virtual Green Roof summit also features other speakers who are good friends of green roof training, including Ed Snodgrass (USA), Karla Dakin (USA) and of course Kerry Ross (Canada). The Virtual Green Roof summit is therefore not an event to miss. Great speakers, great content and well worth registering as soon as possible.

Gull coppice covers 40 acres and consists of two distinct habitats ' an area that had been planted with conifers by the Forestry Commission but was felled in 1996, and oak woodland. The ground flora is limited but improving, and includes foxgloves, common spotted orchids, primrose, bugle and violets. Wildlife is diverse including deer, common lizards, nightingales and purple hairstreak butterflies. There are circular trails with some surfaced paths, oak benches and a snake sculpture. Ideal for dog walking or cycling, and often used to get between the housing estate and school.


I am really intrigued by modern pool designs like this because they offer a much more chic and stylish way to still enjoy a water feature, but without it being garish. So many examples of "high end" swimming pool design that I have seen simply feel flat for me and were certainly not something that I would want to replicate in my own home. This one, however, has a distinct style and panache unlike anything that I have come across in my research. I think that the key to this modern pool design is the fact that the tiled wall behind it, and the surrounding pool deck all have a distinctly contemporary vibe to it. These elements make it feel more artistic and industrial, rather than middle America.
I always like to emphasize how much modern pool designs like this truly add value to your home both from an economic perspective as well as a quality of life perspective. Admittedly, so many pool designs that you see are just very "blah" and can take away from the pretty landscaping of a backyard. We knew that if we were going to install an inground pool, we wanted it to enhance our backyard design rather than take away from it. This is how we came up with this cool (and fun) contemporary look complete with multi-level decks, waterfalls, and shallow lounging pad. As you can see from the pool pictures, giving height and dimension to the pool through tiled retaining walls made the entire space very decorative and allowed us to plant greenery all along the edges so that it would feel more a part of the backyard.
Modern pool designs like this awesome desert oasis really make a backyard special in my opinion. Overall I am simply not a huge fan of inground pool designs, merely because I think that a lot of times they can really cheapen the look of a space (despite the fact that they certainly do bring monetary value to a property). However, if you install one with a sleek curved design like this or a more natural-looking deep blue liner like they chose, I actually think that they can elevate the look of your outdoor entertaining areas. The key to achieving one of these high end designs is definitely pairing your upscale modern pool ideas with a really high quality patio or deck. This flagstone that they chose was the perfect elegant yet function option to contrast against the murky blue coloring of the pool.
Modern pool designs like this are such a fantastic addition to a backyard patio or outdoor entertaining area because they essentially become a piece of art in themselves. As you can see, this is actually a very simple single lap lane design done all in cement on the lower end of your typical inground pool cost, but the colored LED lighting and patio decor really amps up the style into something really special. I always tell our clients that it is important to consider the style of the entire area when you are planning out your pool design because it is more than just that single unit. You need to incorporate any new pool ideas 2022 that you decided on alongside all of your existing architecture and patios -- this is an art, and one that makes your property so extraordinary if you do it right.
I can't decide if I want to do one of those ultra modern pool designs or more of a resort style like this. To me "resort style" means some sort of rocky feature that houses a waterfall, fountain etc. I like those swimming pool ideas (like they used in these photos) because they really embody the spirit of a fun summer and makes you feel like you are on vacation every time you step outside. On the other hand, I also love how more modern pool designs make your property look ultra chic and "finished," and I would imagine that they improve the value of your home a bit more (at least from a buyers perspective). I wish I could take a poll on here of which type of backyard pool designs you like best and what you think works best for resale later.
I'm pretty sure that this home puts all other modern pool designs to shame, not only with the perfect layout and style of the space, but also that amazing view! I love infinity style inground swimming pools especially if they are installed on a property that has an epic view like this. It transforms a simple backyard pool into a stunning piece of artwork and design. As if the pool itself was not enough, the surrounding deck, hot tub and lounge area are pretty much to die for as well. I was particularly struck by these pool images because the Azur color of the liner perfectly matches the sky and contrasts so nicely against the terra cotta stone that they chose for the deck. In fact, I don't think that there is a single thing that I would change about this space.


This new Japanese Forest Grass might cause a ‘snowstorm’ sensation in your garden. ‘Fubuki’ means snowstorm in Japanese. The leaves contrast white and green, with pink appearing in the fall. Propagated at Briggs Nursery, this clumping grass is more compact than ‘Aureola’ from which it is a sport. Hakonechloa is a slow growing deciduous grass with graceful arching leaves. Native to Japan it grows on the mountainside of Mt. Hakone. Being a woodland species we like it here in the Northwest for its tolerance to shade.
Briggs Nursery is located west of Olympia in Washington State. As plant propagators they specialize in rhododendrons, woody ornamentals, perennials, blueberries, raspberries, forestry products and wine grape starter plants. I like their tagline: Enhancing the quality of life through plants! http://www.briggsnursery.com/

Great idea! Rope lighting around the garden. Inexpensive, waterproof and you can use a timer.
This would be great to listen to when it doesn't rain very often here or we could use it to rinse off after being in the pool. "Rain Shower"
It's called the backyard waterfalls. This looks like a door leading into another world that gives a relaxing and calming atmosphere. Nice.
Fountain...so cool! I would so love this in my yard...if I had a yard worthy of it!

Also, sketch out your landscaping ideas before you begin buying anything. It is important to know what you plan on putting in your backyard before you actually spend any money. You need to know that all of your ideas are going to fit in the space that you have. This will also help you determine the approximate cost of your backyard landscaping and aid in planning your budget.
Another great thing about backyard fire pits is that you could actually create one yourself. Like any other product, you don’t always have to buy it. Sometimes, there are products that you can do yourself; the only thing that you need is to buy the materials that are needed to create it. It’s pretty much applicable with backyard fire pits. For more information, there are some backyard fire pit ideas for you:
The approach we’ll use is very simple. We’ll create our backyard resort by combining exotic looking tropical plants with well-adapted plants that either look tropical or look good in a tropical setting. The trick is to learn what plants and how to combine them to create that exotic, tropical look. We’re going to use a simple layering approach. At a high level, here’s what to do: create a solid foundation, create the tropical landscape effect, and add the finishing touches.

A small group of people listened as David Brown, principal with Gibbs and Brown Landscape Architects Ltd., outlined the main tenets of the plan. Earlier this year the town hired Gibbs and Brown to develop the plan.
Gibbs and Brown had supplied a draft version of the plan in July, and were provided comments on it from local people and groups.
Brown explained that much of the plan centres on five key areas identified back in June at a workshop in Inuvik. One area is redeveloping Jim Koe Park into more of a community gathering and marketplace.
"With regards to Jim Koe Park, we really see this as being a real sort of flagship for the revitalization project," Brown said.
"This could be sort of the catalyst, the beginning of maybe implementing a lot more main street development." Reworking main street to make it more pedestrian friendly, and more attractive generally, is another area covered.
Another key area is dealing with litter control and waste management, which Brown acknowledged the town has already made progress on.
Also included in the vision plan is more effective implementation of the parks and trails network, and developing attractive gateways that give a strong sense of place for Inuvik.
A new gateway is proposed for near the hospital, so people would spot it upon reaching the top of the hill when entering town along Mackenzie Road.
Brown said the plan lays out goals and ways to achieve them for about five years, but that it's not set in stone.
"The nice thing about a vision plan, it's not a set thing. It's very fluid."
Brown warned that many vision plans get shelved or flounder, and said the town's Community Beautification Committee could play a key role by meeting once a month and measuring the plan's progress.
Mayor Peter Clarkson agreed that it's important to do work on an ongoing basis, so people can see some progress. He used the work done to Boot Lake park and the boat launch area this summer as examples.
Next summer the town is planning on doing work to the trail around Boot Lake, and building a walking bridge across the creek at the other end.
Brian Desjardins, Inuvik's tourism-fundraising co-ordinator, said there seems to be more interest now in community beautification, and that it's good to have the final plan.
"It gives us a definite vision. We kind of know what to do now," Desjardins said. "It's just a matter of making it happen."

Salvia chamelaeagnea 'Blue Haze'
Salvia chamelaeagnea 'Blue Haze' forms a dense shrub, growing around 2m, with many strong, upright stems. The blue to soft mauve flowers are formed in whorls any time between November and May. The bright green leaves are slightly hairy and emit a very strong scent when touched. It is a hardy and easy plant to grow that will perform well in any well drained and sunny part of the garden. Give a light trim and feed in mid to late spring. Tolerates light frost.


For all our projects we work closely with the client to ensure the job is finished to their specifications and needs. In this particular project we had to work around some site restrictions to build an extension that gave the clients the extra space and light they required. We altered the design, changing the shape to suit the space ensuring the finished result was what the clients had envisioned. We also added some new paving to their garden, finishing the project so the outside looked as good as the inside!

Centennial Parklands, Sydney, NSW
Sam Crawford Architects has been engaged by the Botanic Gardens and Centennial Parklands Trust to design a new footbridge over Kensington Ponds, incorporating new pedestrian and cycle paths as well as a viewing platform. The bridge will act as a gateway to the park and connect the recently completed light rail station to a network of pedestrian and cycle paths throughout the park.
Ponds within the Parklands are home to the long finned eel, that during autumn make the incredible journey from the park’s many ponds to the sea. From there they swim to their spawning grounds in New Caledonia, only to return to the very same ponds later in the year. Adult eels make their way from the ponds down to Botany Bay, sometimes using the stormwater drains that link the ponds, but at times actually leaving the water to slide and wriggle overland to the next water body. They are compelled by instinct to journey to the warm waters of the Pacific to reproduce.The bridge aims to draw attention to this incredible migration; celebrating the form and dynamism of the eel.
SCA is currently working with Christie Civil on the final stages of detailed design and documentation, as Christie Civil begins construction on site.

Nationally and locally important sites an explanation
There are a total of 46 nationally important sites in Buckinghamshire, Grade I (6), Grade II* (11), and Grade II (29) these are all included on the Historic England Register of Parks & Gardens. They are therefore not being considered for inclusion on the Buckinghamshire Council Local Heritage List.
It is important to remember that if a building is listed it does not follow that the garden is registered as generally the two must be considered separately.
To be included on the Local Heritage List (LHL) Parks and Gardens need to survive intact or enough of the layout needs to survive to reflect the original design, other significant points to consider are the history of the site, archaeological, artistic, and architectural interest.
Gardens are ephemeral by nature and change with fashions, they are exposed to the vagaries of nature and time. Horticulture itself is not usually a consideration when assessing a historic garden although trees can be used to date the garden to a particular period.
To date, the parks and gardens that have been nominated for the LHL are all those that have been researched and recorded by the Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust volunteers over the last ten years. Please note the LHL does not include the unitary authority of Milton Keynes.
To find out more about the LHL, a number of YouTube videos are available including one on Parks and Gardens.

Don't let the time and money you spend creating beautiful landscaping go to waste. Without drainage, your landscaping and hardscaping can suffer from water damage that could be easily prevented. Learn why surface drains may be the right choice for your yard.
Using Surface Drains
Surface drains are the most simple form of landscaping drainage you can choose. The system is made up of plastic tubes that are buried below the surface of the ground. The tubes simply move water from lower points in the yard and carry it to an exit point, away from the area.
The system often has fewer parts, requires less planning, and takes less time to install than other drainage options. These benefits of choosing a surface drain might make homeowners gravitate toward this simpler option. However, as with all landscaping components, there are some situations that are right for surface drains and some instances when they aren't the right choice.
Surface drains work best for these situations:
- When a large amount of water needs to be evacuated from an area
- When you notice water consistently flowing from a higher point to a lower point in your yard
- When water is pooling on the surface of the ground or a hard surface
- When water is coming from an outside source, near your yard
Surface Drains or French Drains?
While surface drains work well in the situations listed above, they aren't always the best option for all water issues. The two most well known and widely used drainage solutions are surface drains and French drains.
French drains are designed to deal with water problems that occur below the ground's surface. Like surface drains, French drains move water from problem areas to an exit point. However, they also help to keep the ground hydrated through a series of openings that allow water in and out. Surface drains, on the other hand, simply move water from one area to another.
The Importance of Drainage
It should come as no surprise to homeowners that having standing water in your yard is not a good thing. Having proper drainage can make the difference between having a beautiful, well-hydrated lawn and having an unusable space with swampy ground.
When water builds up on your lawn, the blades will most likely turn brown and can develop diseases that will lead to large patches of dead grass. Brown, dead grass will obviously detract from the looks of your landscaping. It can also quickly become an expensive and time consuming issue to resolve.
In addition to taking away from the look of your yard, poor drainage can also cause erosion, which can lead to your ground sloping and ruining your landscape. Erosion can wash away your plants and destroy grass along the way. Erosion is a red flag for potential home buyers, if you choose to sell your home, and can be a sign that the home may be on uneven ground.
Finally, without good drainage, water buildup can create an environment for unwelcome pests. Insects and mosquitos will be much more likely to find a home in your yard. Not only are these insects annoying, but they could cause even more damage to the plants in your yard.
Both French drains and surface drains are relatively easy to plan and install. However, French drains are less durable because of the openings allowing water to pass through. Surface drains must be much stronger, as they're placed at the ground's surface and will be put under more pressure. That means that surface drains are made from stronger materials and usually require much less maintenance over time.
What to Consider When Choosing Surface Drains
If water build up is an issue in your yard, you might be considering a surface drain. The system is helpful for many homeowners and can be installed relatively easily by professionals. When you're considering surface drains as a solution for your landscape, consider the following points to choose the right system for your situation.
- Is there a clear point where you'd like the drain system to start? Is there an exit point where the water can be relocated to?
- If the drains will go through an area with heavy foot traffic, be sure that you're choosing materials that will hold up to the pressure that will be put on them.
- On areas that will have a lot of traffic, like driveways and walkways, you'll most likely want to choose a square grate, to keep the area flat.
- If the area you're removing water from is part of the landscaping, you'll most likely want a round grate to help prevent debris from building up.
Are you having issues with water pooling in your yard? Is water coming from an outside source and creating problems with your landscaping? Call the team at Circle D Construction for a consultation. The pros can assess the area and determine what type of drainage solution will work best.


Architectural Accent Lighting Draws Attention
As its name suggests, architectural accent lighting is about accenting a particular area or object within a nighttime space. Since our eyes tend to focus on the brightest area in the field of view, we can use light to showcase certain things in a space.
First impressions are lasting. Lighting that sets the right mood and creates a unique experience helps distinguish your property apart from the others. Points of focus are created through contrasts in brightness or color. Lighting designs should be flexible to accommodate changing focal points
Benefits of Architectural Accent Lighting
- Expands Outdoor Living Spaces
- Provides Safety & Security
- Sets Your Property Apart from Others
- Welcoming, Motivating & Engaging
- Creates a Warm Ambiance
How to Plan Architectural Accent Lighting
The first step of accent lighting is to decide how you want a given space to look. What do you want people to see? Deciding where you want the focus is the first step to building a nighttime visual work of art.
The next step is to decide how to light it. Whatever method is used, the lighting must deliver enough punch to create a contrast between the object and its surrounding. Determining the right balance of light to attract interest but not too much to create glare or discomfort.
Another important consideration is how much flexibility is needed. Anytime outdoor lighting is designed, it should not only take into account how the space is used but how the landscaping may grow or change. Flexible solutions should be pre-planned and incorporated into any designed.
Why Choose Coastal Outdoor Lighting
Adding drama to your property, highlighting a unique feature, adding safety or attention with the right size & type of lights takes planning & design. Since 2001 we been providing professional design, installation and repair of most every type of outdoor lighting product on the market today. Our expertly trained architectural accent lighting designers have been turning your building’s finest exterior features into an outdoor art exhibit.

(Bob Bakken/DeSoto County News)
The City of Hernando continues to work toward being the “greenest city around.” Thursday morning, the city was again recognized as a Tree City USA for the ninth straight year. This year’s recognition was for the year 2020 as the application process for the current year is in December of the year.
“The Tree City USA program is a recognition program for cities that are interested in managing their tree canopy and the trees in their city,” said Mississippi Forestry Commission outreach coordinator Tymple Harrison. ‘It helps promote urban forest management and develop a program to manage and maintain those trees and the benefits that we get from them.”
Tree City USA was started in 1976 by the Arbor Day Foundation and is the foundation’s oldest program. The founder hoped the initiative would inspire change on a nationwide level.
The program today includes more than 3,600 communities in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and in Puerto Rico.
“I think the recognition is just a way of confirming that we’re doing what the citizens want,” said Hernando Mayor Chip Johnson. “Our citizens value the tree canopy in Hernando and I think we need to always do what the citizens want us to do. This is one piece of doing that. It’s just making sure that we have processes and policies in place that help protect the tree canopy.”
Cities must meet four requirements for Tree City USA recognition. They are:
- Maintaining a tree board or department
- Having a community tree ordinance
- Spending at least $2 per capita on urban forestry
- Celebrating Arbor Day
Benefits of promoting an urban tree canopy include:
- Trees help absorb the sounds of traffic in urban areas by 40%.
- Neighborhoods with trees are seven to nine degrees cooler than those without.
- Trees reduce energy costs up to 25% by shading buildings and protecting them from winter winds.
- Homes with trees have higher property values.
- Green space plays a major role in improving mental and physical health.
- Planting and maintaining trees absorbs carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, mitigating the effects of climate change.
- Publicly demonstrating your commitment to the environment is a great way to build pride among residents, as well as position your community as an attractive place to live. To help you share your award, we send signs, flags, press releases, and other materials after your acceptance.
One other DeSoto County community is recognized as a Tree City USA. Horn Lake has had the recognition for 18 years.
More information on the program is found at the Tree City USA website.

Outdoor Patio Ideas
Improve Your Patio With These Unique Features
The patio should be a place of entertainment and enjoyment. It is a social area where guests can sit and enjoy food and drinks outdoors. So how do you make people excited to visit your home and spend some time on the patio? You can use these style and design tips to make your garden original and unique.
Patio & Garden Seating Ideas
The patio is fundamentally a place to sit. Without adequate seating options, there is little reason to spend more than a few minutes in the garden. Since it is such an essential feature, why throw any old cheap garden chairs out there?
Instead, think of a more creative way to encourage guests into the garden. Perhaps a minimalist concrete bench. This will be interesting and unique, without drawing attention away from the rest of the garden.
Alternatively, go even more natural. Try cutting up some logs so that they act as little stools and tables. This will make you feel like you’re deep in the woods without having to leave your backyard.
For an ultra-modern look, try some trendy yet comfortable couches or a swinging basket. Remember, this kind of garden furniture can be damaged by the rain, so invest in a good patio cover to ensure that they last.
Outdoor water fountains are often the focal point of any garden, so they need to be carefully considered. You could go for a bog standard concrete fountain, but why not get a little more creative?
Natural looking fountains are always appealing because they enhance the sense of being outdoors. These can be located at the center of ponds or in the shape of a waterfall cascading down some rocks.
However, putting something modern and out of place can be equally beautiful, but with an interesting twist. Take a lump of stainless steel and some neon lighting and you can create a minimalist and original outdoor water fountain that really comes to life after the sun goes down.
There are plenty of companies offering bespoke water features so you can ensure that your garden is one of a kind. The main thing to consider is the style that you’re going for. As a homeowner, the features you choose as decorations can reveal your personality. You can have something natural and beautiful or something fun and outside the box.
When it comes to the garden, creativity is everything. If you are lucky enough to have a large garden, it is essential to have a good reason to spend time in it. By incorporating unique features, you can make your outside time truly enjoyable.
Thanks a lot for your precious time!

With a $1.6 million master plan, downtown Austin has great chances of changing its look with urban rail, better parks, wider sidewalks and moderately priced housing. The $350 million plan, which the City Council must first approve, envisions the transformation of downtown Austin over the next decade. The money needed could come from fees, bond elections and even public-private partnerships.
The plan—which took four years to finish and several meetings with Austin residents—lists seven ideas for transforming the downtown over the next 10 years without destroying what already exists in the area. For example, one of the plan’s goals is to divide the downtown into nine distinct areas in order to transform the existing melting pot.
Moreover, the plan includes transforming existing parks, building urban rail line, and preserving and improving the cultural part of the downtown by turning it into a greater boulevard with a more natural landscape. Another ambitious change included in the plan is the creation of 225 residential units that target very low-income and formerly homeless; other units target low- and medium-income people.
McCann Adams Studio, the planning firm, also proposed that the City Council should accept development projects for taller and bigger buildings, but in exchange the developers would have to provide public benefits. As this program has been largely debated over the last four years, the planners have recently proposed an alternative, by which developers must appear before the Planning Commission and the City Council to ask to build tall buildings. In addition, the developers that want to build taller buildings must explain how they could comply with the density bonus program in order to have their projects approved.


Newby Hall Gardens, Ripon

Having at least a bit of garden space in the back of the house is a priority for many people when house hunting. It is nice to be able to have an area outside that can be enjoyed on warmer days. When utilized properly, you might even be able to use the manner in which you design your back garden to increase the overall value of your property.
However, if your garden has fallen into a bit of disrepair, it certainly won’t do you any favors in that regard. It might not even be a space in which you like to spend time at all. Depending on what state your garden is in, you might be ready to take on the task of giving it a spruce.
By giving your garden a spruce up, you can make better use of the space and make it an overall more pleasant place to be. You can enjoy time with friends and family for cookouts and barbeques. You could also simply make your back garden a bit of a sanctuary where you can relax and unwind in the great outdoors.
If you are ready to give your back garden an upgrade so that you can make better use of the space, here are a couple of the top ways in which you can accomplish this goal.
Redo the Decking
When you are going to put some effort into sprucing up your back garden, you will want to start by focusing on some of the key elements of the space. The decking is a great place to begin your project as it plays such a pivotal role both in the design and functionality of the space.
If your decking isn’t too worse for the wear, a simple power washing and re-staining might be all that you need to take care of. However, if you haven’t been looking after your deck as well as you should have been, then you might find yourself needing to replace old and rotten planks.
Instead of opting for the same sort of material that isn’t as durable and resistant to water damage as you would like, you should try composite decking. This material will have a clean, sleek look and hold up much better against the elements over time.
With a brand new deck, you will be well on your way to fully sprucing up your back garden.
Bring in Extra Lighting
One of the best ways to transform your back garden and make it an overall more inviting space to be in is to install some new lighting elements. Lighting is a great tool no matter what area of your home you are looking to address, and outdoor lighting options can really take your garden to the next level.
If you have any walkways in your garden, you might wish to line them with solar-powered lights. Those who enjoy entertaining friends and family on the deck or patio might consider installing a string of lights.
With the right selection, you can completely transform your garden without much effort at all.


AOLP Lighting Design Certification: COLD
The Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals (AOLP) is an international trade group of contractors, manufacturers, lighting designers, landscape architects, and wholesalers from across North America. AOLP works to establish standards, educate professionals, and increase the appreciation of outdoor lighting.
The Certified Outdoor Lighting Designer (COLD) program offers an advanced level of specialized training in landscape lighting design; currently the only certification program of its kind. Participants spend 4 years in the program developing their lighting expertise. They follow a course of study, educational events, design exercises, and peer-group review of their own and others’ projects. The goal of the program is to promote design excellence, while allowing for the development of an individual’s own lighting design style.
The COLD program announced its first 14 certified professionals in 2011. Certification renewal is not required.
Other lighting certifications
There are many other industry groups that educate and evaluate lighting professionals, including lighting designers. In the series “Lighting Design Certifications: From A to Z,” we sort through the alphabet soup of lighting credentials that recognize illumination professionals as literate, competent, or even expert, in their respective fields.

This classic oriental Cherry tree offers lovely large semi-double creamy, yellow flowers that appear in late April and early May.

When you are choosing the material to use as a foundation for the patio, think about the long-term practicality of the material before you make a final decision. Here are some common patio materials you can choose from.
Patio Dining Table: Think of the outdoor dining table as the centerpiece of your patio experience. It is where you will have your food and wine served. It is where you will place beautiful flowers and scented candles that will help in spicing up your romantic evening with your loved one.
In addition, you may also want to choose the material colors that you can match with your favorite patio furniture and combining different materials is also possible as long as they are properly matched. In any case, it is best to seek professional assistance and advise when using any of the patio material discussed above.
Location of the patio : Most patios are sited immediately adjacent to the rear exit from the house because it is convenient - this may not be the best location for your patio. The back of the house may be shaded all day and therefore not ideal if you wish to like to sit in the sun. Consider a small terrace to the rear of the house with another seating area somewhere else in the garden which gets more sun. When designing a garden it's a good idea to include more than one patio.. One patio can be sited so that it catches the last of the evening sun to provide a warm spot for an evening drink or meal. This makes the garden much more interesting and ensures that you are using more of the garden.

Travertine tumbled tiles are a common type of travertine tiles found in Turkey. These are small sized tiles with 8x8cm or 10x10cm with 1cm or 1.2cm thickness, which have a tumbled surface and are normally used on garden and landscaping applications as well as wall coverings.
Turkey has an abundant offer of Travertine stone. This type of stone can be presented in many forms, finishings and formats. Tumbled tiles is a popular one. These are generally small sized square shaped tiles that are tumbled, thus presenting a rustic look and surface and slightly rounded edges.
These are normally supplied in all types of colours available within the travertine world. This is considered a by-product of the travertine tiles production, to minimize waste on cutting of large tiles and maximize the use of stone overall.
The types of travertine tumbled tiles that we present on this video are:
Travertine Classic Dark
Dark beige / brownish colour, this type of travertine presents the typical rustic look of the tumbled travertine, with the rounded edges, but with a very uniform and predictable beige colour.
Travertine Classic Light
Light beige coloured travertine, with the typical rounded edges and fairly rustic look. Again, the colour is quite uniform and light. This is one of the most popular types of tumbled travertine tiles.
This type of travertine presents a fairly irregular colour, varying from beige to brown, with some occasional greenish/reddish areas. It presents the same structure and look as the top two travertine, but with certain colour variation.
Well defined darker brown colour, the Travertine Noce tumbled tiles present some contrast. Here, the rustic look is more pronounced than with other types of travertine.
Travertine with a light red / pinkish colour, it shows a fairly uniform colour and the typical tumbled look and structure. This is a good choice to combine with other coloured types of travertine.
Another popular type of tumbled travertine, the Travertine Yellow presents a cloudy structure, but with a quite consistent yellow colour. Yet another popular choice of tumbled travertine tiles.
