Boston – Copley Wolff Design Group, in conjunction with Bergemeyer Associates, redesigned the exterior of 234 Berkeley Street, the current gallery flagship store of Restoration Hardware. The Boston Preservation Alliance recognized the renovation of the former New England Museum of Natural History with a 2013 Preservation Achievement Award.
The 234 Berkeley Street store holds one of the company’s largest full-line design galleries, including its extensive outdoor and garden collection. To showcase the coveted collections, Copley Wolff Design Group prepared preliminary site designs to study the overall character and specifics of the project, such as grading, walkways, steps, and site walls. The final design of the store’s exterior includes visitor friendly features such as two new drops offs, several handicap ramps, and a variety of seating areas which will include pieces from Restoration Hardware’s outdoor and garden collections.
Copley Wolff Design Group complemented the historic aesthetic of the building with planters, pathways, and a formal white garden.
“Our goal for this project was twofold: We wanted to recreate an exterior layout that matched the beautiful and historic character of the building and to artistically highlight Restoration Hardware’s outdoor collections,” commented Lynn Wolff, Principal of Copley Wolff Design Group. “It was a privilege to work on such a prominent and historic Back Bay building.”
The Preservation Achievement Awards are bestowed annually to honor outstanding achievements in historic preservation and compatible new construction in Boston. The renovation of 234 Berkeley Street is particularly notable, as it has returned the building to its former splendor and restored unique architectural elements that had since deteriorated. With this award, The Boston Preservation Alliance celebrates the positive impact the building has had on Boston’s Bay Back and exemplifies 234 Berkeley as a model for future preservation work.
“It’s a pleasure to recognize the preservation of one of the most fabulous and most prominent buildings in the Back Bay,” said Greg Galer, Executive Director of the Boston Preservation Alliance. “For years the preservation community feared the long-term outcome here, and now we have a restored masterpiece of which we can all be proud.”
Originally designed in by William Wibbons Preston, the building was one of the first to be constructed in the newly completed Back Bay. The museum’s original architectural features included Corinthian pilasters, decorative railings, and cornices. However, the building eventually shifted use from Museum of Natural History to Bonwit Teller store, and ultimately fell into disrepair during the 1990s.

Outdoor lighting is an excellent way of decorating your home. Besides enhancing security, the lights make the property more attractive and magical, more so when dusk falls. But just how can you use lights to actuate such an invigorating landscape design that blends naturally? Here are several practical tips worth considering.
Decide how to use the outdoor space
The first thing you should do is to determine the outcome that you want to actuate. For instance, is your intention to facilitate a weekend entertainment, prevent slip and fall injuries, or solely to enhance the property's architectural aesthetics by making it alluring to prospective renters and buyers? Whatever your intention may be, it is important to go for lighting solutions that will help you in your quest. Besides, bearing in mind that there are hundreds of outdoor lighting solutions in the market, clarifying your objective beforehand will make it easy for you to identify what equipment to purchase.
Avoid sparsely placed lights
Many homeowners, with the intention of saving a few bucks, often install one or two lights along the walkways, or in the backyard. While such a move might help you to save money, it does not create a magical night scene. Remember it’s an investment property and instead of going that route, consider installing the outdoor home lighting in such a manner that they adequately highlight: the pathways, steps, trees, patios, entry points, as well as unique architectural structures such as pools, water fountains and much more.
Use LED lighting solutions
When installing outdoor home lighting equipment, it is judicious to invest in solutions that will last long, to keep you from climbing trees or digging through snow frequently to change the bulbs. To this end, the LED lights are an excellent pick. They are remarkably durable and can last up to a hundred thousand hours. Moreover, they can withstand inclement weather like hail, winter storm or the hot sun. Another impressive trait of the LED lights is that they boast of unique, versatile qualities. They come in an assortment of colors, and you can dim, brighten or manipulate them to create whatever illusion you want.
Have a focal point and a sense of depth
The trick to a great outdoor home lighting exercise is to identify one or two elements on the property to towards which you will draw attention. It could be an exciting feature like a waterfall, swimming pool or oriental outdoor plant. Whatever you decide to be the focal point, you should use the lights in such a way that they not only highlight these features but also create a sense of depth.
Position your outdoor lights at Night
The best way for you to identify the perfect outdoor lighting design is to conduct the installation exercise at night. Under cover of darkness, you can get a full understanding of how trees, bushes, or any other object on the property, cast shadows. Subsequently, it becomes easy for you to position your lighting equipment where it will give you the best service possible. Moreover, you will not waste precious time on trial and error exercises since you will get instant feedback on how the lighting arrangement plays out.
Combine Overall, Accent and Task Lighting
An ingenious outdoor home lighting design is one that offers a variety of visual interests. For instance, it should include overall lighting solutions to light up the entire landscape, accent bulbs for accentuating the architectural elements, as well as task lighting solutions for illuminating specific functional purposes. Combining all these landscaping lighting solutions helps to create a fuller feel, and sparks life into the property.
Determine the lighting strategies
As stated above, you can play around with outdoor lights to create different effects. You, should, therefore, consider what nightlife impression you want and install lighting equipment that will help you actuate it. Typically, you have three main ways of aiming the lights. These include up-lighting, down-lighting, and cross-lighting.
i. If you wish to create a full moonlight effect on your property, then the down lights should be your choice. All you ought to do is to place the bulbs on a raised surface, for instance, a tree or tall lamppost, and aim the lights so that they point downwards towards your property.
ii. Still, if you want to create a strong dramatic effect characterized by an emphasis on bright light and dark shadows, up-light outdoor solutions will suffice. Just aim the lights upwards towards an interesting architectural feature or a tree.
iii. However, if you want to create a magical effect of an incredible outdoor that does not have shadows, then you need to look for lighting solutions that will help you cross-light the property. You then only need point your property’s focal points from all sides.

It was great to finally make it to Florida’s original theme park.
The best part was the price — free!

Well, sort of …
Cypress Garden predates Disney World (and all the other Orlando area parks) but is now part of a larger theme park, the latter of which we did have to pay to get into. And well worth the price I may add, too. Retaining the garden added a welcome historic and natural element that weaved through and complemented the rest of the park.
Can you guess the park’s new name?

Once you become a homeowner, you tend to discover all sorts of terminology you weren’t previously aware of. If you’ve been looking into redoing your Carolina property’s landscaping, you may have run across the phrase “landscape curbing.”
This isn’t a particularly common term, so the odds are good that you’re not entirely sure what it means. Fortunately, “landscape curbing” is easy to understand! It refers to edging, or a “curb” of sorts, along the edge of a flower bed, garden, or other landscaped area.
If you’re going to put money into remodeling your yard, landscape curbing is a must-have! It will enhance your home’s curb appeal and add a finishing touch to your newly landscaped lawn. Here, you’ll discover everything you need to know about landscape curbing before you start your project.
What materials can be used?
Although some homeowners opt to create DIY curbing out of bricks or stones, concrete is by far the most common material for this project. Typically, North Carolina and South Carolina homeowners choose to hire professional installers to lay their concrete curbing. These home services experts use concrete curbing machines to lay edging.
It is important to consider the design of your lawn’s new concrete curbing before you contact an installer. There are a wide variety of styles, including straight lines, scalloped edges, and curved arc shapes. Although the shape of your beds will somewhat dictate the style of your curbing, personal preference also plays a major role. The concrete curbing professional you hire will need to know what you want before he or she begins the job.
How can I dress up my concrete curbing?
If you aren’t a fan of how plain concrete looks, there are plenty of things you can do to make your new curbing more aesthetically appealing. Concrete staining and concrete stamping are both great options! It is important to note that not all installers offer these services. You may have to hire another home services professional to finish your lawn’s concrete curbing.
Staining is a great option if you want to add a pop of color to the edges of your flower beds. Although many concrete stains are neutral, in the brown, grey, and dark red families, there are brighter hues available as well! If, for instance, you live in a coastal Carolina bungalow, you may want to choose a cheerful concrete edging color like bright yellow or aqua.
Concrete stamping, on the other hand, is meant to add texture more than color to concrete curbing. It can be used to create designs, such as swirls, or to make concrete look like stone, brick, and other more costly materials. You can stain stamped concrete after the stamping process is finished if desired.
To find a reliable North Carolina or South Carolina concrete curbing installer, start online. Visit reputable consumer review websites to learn more about the professionals who serve your area. The more research you do before signing a contract, the more confident you will feel about your upcoming landscaping project!

Villa La Babina park appears as a green island floating in the Imola plain at Sasso Morelli, a rural area, source of the unusual experience of the CLAI cooperative, centred round the village which was restored at the close of the 18th century by the architect Cosimo Morelli, and the crofts cultivated by entire generations with loving care. The present layout of Villa La Babina looks like a 19th century landscape park typical of Bolognese stately homes.
The CLAI cooperative acquired the Villa in 1999 and restored it faithfully as their Executive Centre, a hub for work, training and hospitality. The romantic park simultaneously underwent continuous interventions to restore it to its original grandeur.
In 2020 a new building was added as an assembly room, in harmony with the surrounding park and the villa, contributing to the creation of a new cultural approach to the historic and environmental heritage of the community and local area. Villa La Babina symbolises the love of life, work, sharing training experiences, rediscovering conviviality and the art of entertaining at table, of guiding tours, experiencing biodiversity, different shapes, colours and scents over the seasons, of blossoms and fruits in the growing period.
The beauty of the garden is savoured by strolling round the oval path linking various footpaths, observing secular plants, English oaks, holm oaks, the great elm which has survived the dreaded “Dutch elm disease” and the two Atlas cedars majestically towering above the scented flowerbeds and perfumed roses, by enjoying the hydrangea collections and following the roads bordering the fields leading to the CLAI salami factory.

City square will be designed in Ufa on "Urban Day"
UFA, 11 December 2019. /Bashinform News Agency/ translated by Tatiana Aksyutina/.
On December 13, an Urban Day will be held at the Bashkiria Lifestyle Center. The Institute for the Development of Bashkortostan Cities will present a strategy for the public space development in the republic, as well as will hold a unique Urban Battle format — two teams will develop a project for Sovetskaya Square in Ufa.
On December 13, at 10.00, representatives of municipalities, ministry of housing and public utility services RB, administrations and urban experts will gather.
From 3.00 pm, an open urban lecture hall will be organized on the organization of modern playgrounds, the use of sea containers in construction, plants in the urban environment, as well as urban illumination (the speaker — Valerio Festi from Italy, decorating Ufa for the New Year).
“City Square. Reboot ” workshop will be held in the format of Urban Battle: two teams of social activists and journalists, led by experienced moderators, will develop the square project and will have to defend it before opponents and the public. The winners will be determined by a jury of experts and representatives of the Institute for the Development of Bashkortostan Cities.
“Currently, special attention is paid to the development of the urban environment. We understand that the projects implemented as part of the National project “Housing and Urban Environment” can become drivers for the development of each city. For this, it is necessary to determine priorities and develop a strategy for the development of public spaces in the Republic of Bashkortostan, ”said Olga Sarapulova, an adviser to Radiy Khabirov on the development of public spaces.

14th March 2022: Plug Planting at High Borrowdale Land Manager's Diary: Read it here> The old adage ‘many hands make light work’ was certainly true on Monday for our first ever hay meadow plug planting day at High Borrowdale. 17 years after we re-created our first meadow, and 9 after the second, we decided to add a bit more diversity and colour by plug planting the species that have been slow to germinate and grow. For this session of planting these included Wood Cranesbill, Greater Burnet and Common Knapweed. 18 volunteers turned out to help us and 120 hours worth of effort later we had planted 2500 small plants. It was a bit of a shock to see so many trays of tiny plants, some of them looking more dead than alive, but we are confident that with the start of the growing season upon us, they will soon grow and thrive at High Borrowdale. The task itself is delightfully simple, planting 5 or 6 plants in a clock pattern randomly across the fields. We divided the field into units so that we could ensure the right number of plants were spread across the meadows and then set off. Despite ferocious winds and heavy rain in the afternoon all the plants are now in their new home and whilst we did not welcome the rain, it was just the thing the plants needed to help them settle in! Although we could not really see the results of our work as the plants were so small, the empty seed trays were satisfying and we can now look forward to more colour, and a healthier and more diverse habitat for our pollinators and insects. Interestingly meadow plants are also good at reducing and slowing the slow of surface water as they have longer roots which absorb more water and their rougher texture slow the flow of water. Thanks again to the Lake District National Park’s Farming in Protected Landscape Scheme funding, and the generosity of our members and supporters who donated money to our land appeal last year. If you fancy helping out at the next plug planting day, keep an eye out for dates in May on our website Next month we return to High Borrowdale to finish the tree planting.

A rolled edge spa is a great way to add distinction to your custom Selah spa design.
The rolled edge or in builder terms a “rolled beam” is a curvy tile line that rolls over the inside of the spa as it climbs over to the top.
The rolled edge spa is an upgrade, but because it’s formed with one-by-one ceramic tile, it not only delivers a little extra comfort, but it looks fantastic. And, because of the ceramic materials, rolled edge spa design delivers that much more designer touch for your color choices.
Materials, colors, and styles for your rolled edge spa will be laid out for you by your Selah Design Consultant as we carefully craft your entire scene. A rolled edge spa is usually also very tall anywhere from twelve to eighteen inches above your pool. In addition to design, your team at Selah will engineer your rolled edge spa for comfort and circulation & sanitation hydraulics.

Published at Monday, 23 September 2019. Backyard. By Tempeste Royer.
A properly landscaped backyard can create an atmosphere that will have your family outside in the backyard more than inside the house. Having a place to sit back and relax is important. If you have a beautiful backyard and no place to sit, you cannot enjoy your backyard to the maximum potential. Determine what type of seating would complement your house, style and backyard. Patio furniture sets are a good place to start looking for ideas. Keep in mind the different types of materials used. This may later help you decide what other features to place in your backyard.
Backyard waterfall building is a snap, with this totally new and unique process. No heavy lifting, no special tools or skills required. CaveRock Design has the weekender’s dream project. Nothing compares to having your own personal backyard waterfalls and knowing you were the designer, the builder, and the landscaper of your backyard waterfall. You can do this project for literally pennies on the dollar compared to having a landscaper do this.
A backyard habitat is usually a home to many different kinds of wildlife. Some backyards wake up in the summer with butterflies, bees, wild flowers, insects, and bugs of all kinds. Some people design their backyard so that it can be a safe place for some animals during the more intense winter season. One of the main reasons why backyard habitats are growing in popularity is the fact that natural wildlife continue to diminish; and in some locations, this is occurring at an alarming rate due to industrial developments and residential communities.

Today it was announced that Burges in Coventry has won in the High Streets category at the 2021 Future Cities Forum awards.
Burges, a medieval street, created in 1848 is one of only a few traditional high streets to remain in Coventry. It contains a terrace of listed, timber-framed buildings, which though altered in the eighteenth-century, has retained building fabric of medieval origin.
Due to lack of investment the area had declined, and the conservation area had been added to Historic England’s at-Risk Register.
This historic area has been restored as the national demonstrator project for Historic England’s High Street Heritage Action Zone programme. The project received Heritage Lottery funding as well as one of the first to benefit from the Future High Streets Fund.
The work undertaken by the entire project team to restore and regenerate this historic area has helped preserve one of the last traditional high streets in Coventry. The judges recognised that as well as restoring and upgrading the medieval streetscape, it has boosted the local economy and successfully engaged with the local community.
Congratulations to everyone involved in this truly unique project.

December 10, 2009: The Southern California chapter of the American Public Works Association awarded the prestigious Project of the Year award in the Streets and Transportation category to the City of Santa Clarita's Magic Mountain Parkway/I-5 Interchange expansion project, which addressed one of the most congested interchanges in the region.
Willdan and its team provided civil, structural, traffic, right of way, and geotechnical engineering and landscape architecture services, and assisted the City during construction.
The $50 million project achieved substantial, immediate improvements, under budget and ahead of schedule, while allowing for local businesses, developments, and utility companies to take advantage of the unique opportunity to improve the services they provide to their customers. Considerable thought was given to the future needs and development of the area, and incorporating them into the design of the project.
The project was completely funded by Newhall Land, the County of Los Angeles, METRO, with support from CalTrans, at a cost of $48 million, and was completed over a three-and-a-half year period.


One of the best ways to convey authenticity in your landscape design is by using flagstone. Flagstone is a beautiful, natural stone ideal for outdoor patios and is available in various colors, styles, and finishes. It’s relatively easy to maintain and can last for centuries if properly managed.
Here are a few tips on maintaining your flagstone patio to keep it looking immaculate for years to come!
It is important to sweep your flagstone patio regularly, as dirt and debris can easily build upon its surface. This buildup can lead to discoloration and staining. Use a broom or a dust mop to get rid of dirt at least once a week, and make it a habit to sweep if there has been a lot of wind that could cause more debris on your patio than usual.
Avoid Excess Water
Too much exposure to water can cause flagstone to become discolored. Excess water on the surface can lead to the growth of mold or mineral buildup, and it can cause weathering of the stone. Use a squeegee to remove water or condensation on your flagstone as if you were mopping it.
Invest in a Stone Cleaner
Not all cleaners are appropriate for natural stone. Some cleaners can damage the stone by etching it or discoloring it. Choose a cleaner designed for natural stone to clean your flagstone patio. Follow the instructions carefully and use it with a soft mop or sponge. You can also use it with a low-pressure garden sprayer. Follow up with a rinse and squeegee the remaining water.
Remove Stains with Outdoor Bleach
Outdoor bleach is not the same bleach you use to clean your house or clothes; it is specially designed to use on outdoor walls, fences, and stone. You can use this bleach to spot clean stains that appear on your flagstone patio. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for the bleach carefully, and thoroughly rinse your patio once you are done. A good cleaning should be done every year to three years, including spot cleaning the stains.
At VistaPro Landscape & Design, we understand that properly maintaining your flagstone patio will add value to your home. We specialize in working with and installing natural stone during hardscaping projects and can provide you with the best natural stone options in the business.

Your space is special to you, right? You want that your home or any place you are constructing or renovating should look great and feel absolutely [phenomenal. You did finish transforming your humdrum outdoor retaining walls with some sort of stunning stone veneers as well as stone cladding, but you just stood back and looked at your masterpiece and it just looked uncompleted. What if you add up natural stone wall caps? Yes, stone capping could be a great idea for your space no matter what the place is.
In simple words, stone capping is exactly where a huge flat stone gets used to being placed atop any freestanding wall, giving it a full look. Once you are installing stone capping, even the natural options, the basic rule of thumb (for constancy purposes) is to make use of the same stone for the capping as you make use of for the cladding. And if you really wish to give your retaining wall that designer kind of appeal, it is wise if you choose the capping that is somewhat thick in height and one that perfect overhangs on each side of the wall: such a thing gets your wall a majestic appeal.
It depends on preference too!
Depending on overall personal preference, you can even install stone capping that simply contrasts the wall cladding. In case you somewhat prefer this style, it would be nice doing your research prior to beginning your wall cladding project and choosing the contrasting stone colors and even textures before you start to install the wall.
Here you can have a quick peep into the four diverse types of profile edges that stone capping can be easily available for you:
- Rock Faced
This is the type of finish is that rustic in nature and gets created with a split or chiselled face that forms up a rough and natural-looking edge that recalls its natural aesthetic even if it chips. Most of the time this type of capping is used on sandstone.
- Split-Faced Stone
This is the type of stone capping that has a face where the stone has been simply broken to an approximate size. It looks absolutely rustic as well as natural and gives an edgy type of feel to the wall.
- Chiseled Edge
This is the rustic, aged appearance on stone capping that is produced by mechanically chipping at the stone’s edge to simply give it that edgy look. This is an ideal type of stone capping option for feature walls that simply blend well with nature.
- Square type of Pencil Edge
These types of stone capping finishes have a smooth and even clean aesthetic that looks brilliant on more modern and contemporary-styled feature walls. With their smooth type of edges, these wall capping stones look absolutely best installed flush against the wall cladding. This capping has somewhat edges that are sawn, with slightly rounded types of corners to diminish the sharpness.
Bullnose type of Edge Capping
Then the bullnose edge has a somewhat half-circle look and adds another degree of elegance to your wall. In case you want your capping to simply overhang the wall, the Bullnose edge looks excellent!
Column Cap in brief
Are you about to build or even revamp your overall dreamland? Well, the outdoor zone is the actual image reflector. You should definitely pay due consideration to its decor. Several elements help in enriching the overall outdoor surroundings. Columns are definitely one among them. You could have heard or read in the books about the elegance and royalty of the Mughals. Antique pillars as well as columns were the most critical element of their royal empire. Nothing has really changed since then. Most folks prefer to opt for column construction to simply provide a pleasant outdoor accent. The decision related to the right material is the only thing that you should put stress on. There are manifold materials available in the market. But the stone that is quite affordable yet attractive is only worthwhile. Remember that natural stone is definitely one solution for constructing buildings.
Know about the stone column cap
A combination or a blend of two words, i.e., Column and Cap. Where the column simply refers to the standing vertical structure and the overall cap is all about the top covering material. So, together column cap is something that refers to a piece of quarried stone that is cut in squares to simply place on the top of the pillar. It is something available with all four sides type of rock face. Here, you should understand that rock face simply means to the snapped or even chiseled edges. Well, are you a homeowner who wishes to have a luxurious outdoor living zone or area? Or anyone who wants a lavish type of touch-up? Whatever the instance may be, capping stone goes well with the best. Column covers formed up of natural stone not just boost the visual appeal but even offer lifelong durability.
Things to consider
When it comes to the overall outdoor construction, preference or decision of capping stone plays a critical role. Here, it works as a maker or even breaker element. Here are some points that can help you make a choice:
Consider the size
When making this decision, you must consider the size of the masonry pillar and even the headgear stone going to place on it. The stone must neither be extremely large nor too small. Right-sized post caps appear aesthetically pleasing and go relative with outdoor oases.
Natural stones can be found in a wide array of color options. You can easily get hues from dark to light, adding manifold color to the range. The choice of bold shades makes the decor stand out. Whereas, charm hues simply offer a prominent touch. Selecting multi-shades and even stones having veins and swirls on the surface mix up quickly with the surroundings and make a subtle type of statement.

The project, an SNF grant totaling €5.92 million, is delivered fully completed and operational, and the Municipality of Kallithea undertakes its full and exclusive management, for the use and benefit of all citizens.
After approximately three years of intensive works and strict adherence to the project’s original time schedule, the Foundation is delivering a complete and multifunctional Park, in a 28,000 m2 site, in an area of the Old Horse Racetrack site. The park is a testament to the SNF’s commitment to create a project that will contribute towards improving the quality of life for the citizens of Kallithea and the wider area, as well as increasing the number of free green spaces in the capital.
The “Municipal Sports and Leisure Park” of Kallithea is connected, in terms of both location and design, with the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC), which is currently under construction on the Park’s northeastern side. Italian architect Renzo Piano, who has also designed the SNFCC, was responsible for the design and supervision of the construction of the “Municipal Sports and Leisure Park”, as well as of the related supporting facilities, in order to achieve the desired aesthetic harmony, and the symbolic but also practical coexistence of these two separate projects.
The Foundation’s grant included the design, development and construction of the overall project, which includes an open air Olympic size swimming pool, a children’s pool, a football pitch, and a playground, as well as three building structures housing supporting facilities, spanning a total of 1,000 m2, and including a cafeteria and a multi-purpose hall for the requirements of the Municipality of Kallithea. The grant also includes the creation of approximately seventy free parking spaces within the grounds of the Park, as well as the landscaping and development of the site, through the planting of high and low plants, and the installation of irrigation and lighting systems, together with internal traffic arrangements.
Andreas Dracopoulos, Co-President of the SNF Board of Directors, stated: “Today, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation delivers to the Municipality of Kallithea a contemporary project that was developed in accordance with the highest quality, environmental and technical specifications. The project is of profound social nature, as it was created for the benefit of the citizens and with the primary aim of being used by everyone, free of charge. It is also the first, important step towards the total regeneration of Faliro Bay. To us, the completion of the Municipal Sports and Leisure Park of Kallithea serves as testament to our faith in projects that contribute to public-private partnerships, as effective means of serving public welfare in Greece.”
The “Municipal Sports and Leisure Park” was designed by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop, in collaboration with the local architectural firm Betaplan, and it was constructed by Ballian Techniki S.A.

Installation of a pre-formed pond is fairly straight forward but does require some patience. It is important that the pond be well supported on all sides so you don't want to over dig if you can avoid it. Leveling is also very important. Even a 1-inch difference between one side and the other will be very obvious once the pond is filled with water. If there are any gaps around the pond after you fit it in place use sand to backfill them, not dirt. Dirt will settle over time and lead to stress on the sides of the pond.
Step 1: Outline
Mark the rough outline of the pond. You can use a garden hose, spray paint, wooden stakes or anything else that will show you roughly where to dig.
Step 2: Digging
Start digging 6 inches inside the marked area to start. Remove all of the loose dirt as you go. Be mindful of the depth. You don't want to over dig.
Step 3: Edging
Once the bulk of the dirt is removed it's time to start the edging work. It's best to double check that the shape and size of the marked area is accurate before you start this step. Make straight shovel cuts in the dirt as you go. Continue to remove all of the loose dirt.
Step 4: Placement
It's almost a given that the shape of the hole will not be perfect from the start. Place the pond in the hole to check where you need to remove extra dirt so it fits as tightly as possible.
Step 5: Leveling
Once the pond is in place, use a level to check the height of the edges all the way around. Even a small height difference will be very noticeable once the pond is full of water.
Step 6: Backfill
DO NOT BACKFILL WITH DIRT!!! You will almost always end up with areas that aren't as tight as you would like. Use sand to backfill the gaps. Dirt will settle over time leaving gaps which will put stress on the pond.
Step 7: Rock (optional)
You can lay flat rock around the edge of the pond to hide the plastic. This is not really necessary but it will make the finished pond look more natural.

GLEN ELLYN – The Environmental Commission is partnering with the Morton Arboretum and tagging trees with cards that promote their positive qualities, the village of Glen Ellyn announced in a news release.
The theme of the endeavor is "Every Tree Matters." Six different tree tags will be hung, sharing the following messages:
• Trees clean the air we breathe.
• Trees keep us cooler.
• Trees increase our homes' value.
• Trees make our streets quieter.
• Trees help us relax.
• Trees make our cities safer.
Each tag provides details on how trees enhance the environment.


Vacation House in Antiparos I
The scope of the project involved the major renovation of an existing vacation house and its surrounding courtyards and terraces. The old building walls, the existing doors and windows, the pergolas as well as the electromechanical infrastructure were demolished in order to bare the concrete structure and reinforce it.
The brief of the client was to entirely renovate the house without altering its original character and allure. The new materials and finishes were carefully combined in order to create a unique ambience, a home that weathers elegantly with time. The furniture and accessories, all selected by the architects, complement the design.
The outdoor seating area was extended and a new swimming pool, a two bedroom guest house and a sunken hammam and fitness area were added, harmoniously integrated with the surrounding landscape, allowing the imposing sea views to enter in almost every space.

The City of Lake Oswego has over 300 acres in natural areas and neighboring Tryon Creek State Park adds another 770 acres. That adds up to a lot of natural space but most of that space is surrounded by neighborhoods creating habitat islands. What if we could somehow connect those habitat islands and give native insects, birds and wildlife more food and space to thrive? That is where the Backyard Habitat Program comes in, helping homeowners learn more about their yard, what invasive plants they have and where they may be able to add a few native plants into their new or existing garden space. In Lake Oswego, the Backyard Habitat Certification Program is managed by the Friends of Tryon Creek and so far we have visited over 153 homeowners. 57 homeowners have already certified at the Silver, Gold or Platinum level while the remaining homeowners are working towards their certification.
Heidi Schrimsher is one of our homeowners working towards certification and even though she is a landscape architect, she is still able to learn a lot through the program. Heidi is currently aiming for Gold certification which means 25% of her yard will be planted in natives. One of the things Heidi enjoys since adding natives to her yard is the sudden increase in the variety of birds. Native plants provide food for native insects that are a primary food source for young birds. This is something she can show her children and help them make a daily connection with nature. Some of the other benefits she sees include eliminating chemicals and fertilizers and reducing her water use as the native plants get established. Heidi wants other homeowners to know that although it can seem overwhelming when you have a lot of English Ivy or invasive Armenian Blackberry, it helps to take it one step at a time.
The Backyard Habitat program can help you get there. Heidi was impressed with the site report and plant list we specifically designed for her yard. Heidi also enjoyed buying her plants through the Backyard Habitat program at wholesale prices. She feels that it is empowering to do her part in her own yard to provide habitat and food for wildlife.
If you share this feeling, sign up for a site visit today. Through a partnership with the City of Lake Oswego, the Columbia Land Trust and the Audubon Society of Portland the Friends are able to offer site visits for a one-time fee of $25. To take advantage of this incredible deal please visit: http://www.tryonfriends.org/protect/backyard-habitat/.

Basic Project of a Smart Cruise Terminal Building
Scope of the work is the building design documentation of the Cruise Terminal of the Old City Harbour of the Port of Tallinn which can be seen as an excellent example for planning a smart cruise terminal building. The summary of the design documentation gives an overview about the design team/companies which have focused on specific design areas. Each corresponding design company has prepared a section of the building design documentation concerning their particular expertise. Three sections: Outdoor Space/Landscaping, Architecture and Interior Architecture are exemplarily translated and published on the GREEN CRUISE PORT website. Some selected engineering drawings illustrate the planned terminal design additionally. In order to receive deeper insights into the terminal design plans please contact Port of Tallinn, Mrs. Hele-Mai Metsal, Head of Development Department, directly.

If you have a small garden and would like to make it a cosy area, you could use cobblestones. Cobblestone ideas include a stone age design and a simulated rock design. The stone age design creates a cosy and romantic ambience which takes you back to the days of horse drawn carriages. It gives your garden a warm and inviting feeling which can make any one feel welcome in your garden.
Concrete – a concrete paving stone offers a multitude of landscaping opportunities and comes with a great choice in relation to design, style, and color options. Easy to install, the concrete slabs are durable, strong, versatile, low-maintenance, and perfect for all climate conditions.
And then there is the ’corn-gluten’ method. This corn-gluten meal is sold in some garden supply stores. A totally natural method which will stop plants from germinating between your paving stones. It is applied well before the seeds are seriously thinking of starting their life in the spring. Spread it evenly into the spaces and trust that the weather stays dry for a few days after application or you may have to repeat.
A great way to enhance the look of your driveway is by using interlocking paving stones. Besides looking great, these stones are also very cost-effective, durable and easy to repair. Interlocking paving stones are getting very popular these days and their technology has improved a lot compared to the past.

Landscape Forms | Gunnar is a unique floodlight system with functionality as versatile as its universally modern aesthetic. Gunnar is inspired by the work of neoclassical Swedish architect Gunnar Asplund. Its systematic approach centers around its floodlight projector, a robust LED luminaire whose fluted housing takes cues from the columns of classical architectural orders. While bridging traditional and contemporary design language, Gunnar remains minimal and modern, offering a worldly aesthetic and broad versatility. Wall-mounted, catenary, or pole-mounted in a variety of heights with up to six projectors per single pole, Gunnar provides myriad options for layered lighting in outdoor architectural and urban environments.
