" The idealistic had to take this motif. The diamond shaped windows. Then transferred into the quarters here you see in blue star breaks up this nice and straight -- nicely that could be exactly design idea and then this when this grows up for example this tiny Stucco. Still take a long time I suppose that'll be trained on an arch to really create a feeling of privacy for a little -- courtyard garden for in the cabin and then all of this space. Is the actual garden for the house say -- that facade."
" The inside is railing -- that's -- shingles and it. The tram on the windows and a nice Victorian touch to the house."
" This period and a behind the color scheme I think works really well the stone green gray is of the field -- these things in Burgundy depth. And then what we've done here is to take that same diamond -- blow it up. And that's essentially what we have -- court yet we've got a portion of the diamond here. But up to about thirty feet and then back to a four foot diamond again here -- a -- focus in the center of it within herb garden in an. These wonderful low voltage lights that look where lightning has nice and -- especially pretty when it's weathered and get a nice sixteen on it for sure. And here spread snap threatens your still watering actually. It's just we're trying to keep this alive that. Mother nature has sort of stop the -- they tell you that terrace is now month old and I was checking it yesterday to see if any of the bluestone had moved around. Good job it's it's nice and solid. Yes we've installed a F stone dust they have bluestone dust. I into the giants we ordered and we scrape it and right in the area yep and it keeps it from moving around bounds right up -- tightly yeah. It's it's it's a wonderful. Treatment here -- be taking this one large bluestone. And cut it. Where that diamond shape would ended a point we've made a transition into a square so that that's our front front and create tonight's entry. And this is another wonderful little triangular space that is. Mostly pink roses and what do you call those tall deep pink flowers back there that's and then of course the only. And should grow about 44 feet tall yeah. Very pretty don't you love this spent. I gotta tell you I have been driving for years by house on Cape Cod it has offense. Like this and so I copied -- last -- to downscale that about three -- scale the so we've made these pedestals. And the way this works this that we simply have mosque baskets. That can have annuals and them and they sit in a shelf inside. This pedestal base that's nice that they handle the change the flowers on a seasonal thanks a sharp or you can stick something in for color when you feel like at the Christmas you can put little. The client created Christmas trees depth and then the idea would defenses that. This galas chunky instead of using a two by four we make it with a two by six. And these one by sixes are spread. Far enough apart that you know there's one on the backside to give you a little bit of privacy. And Kenya -- Seattle lovely smoked -- I guess we'll do creating have nice way they are exactly if you had a lot of it as you drove but it's via a wave effect. Yes."
" What we have here is a rose of Sharon. Single white with a Burgundy throat called red heart disease and we've complement the trim on the windows clear color. In the other of the Sharon that's slower growth fifteen or eighteen feet tall and molecular trim to about five or sixty in diameter. And it helps office some of the vertical rest on the house and stove compliment some of the caller we have a top on the second floor."
" As -- as it doesn't hide my scallop shingles on the gable end and the verge board and all the details though there are OK I promise you want."
