Summer already!

August!? How did that happen? Well, after a long hiatus from the blog (sorry!) we thought we'd show you one project we've been busy working on this season.
Check out this amazing before and after.....




This is the roofdeck of a client of ours who undertook a full roof deck renovation. We installed a mix of flooring to cover steeply sloped roof including ipe decking, a green roof (!!), bluestone pavers and a lightweight stone called expanded Shale.
The project turned out beautifully- it feels so much more spacious and the clients are up there daily.
Here are some detail shots of the various aspects of the project.

This shows Ipe decking, a bit of the expanded shale bed, a custom fountain wall the clients picked up in Asia, and some blooming echincaea to pull it all together.....
The Green roof- It's a modular system made of locking trays, pre-grown for instant gratification....
Bluestone pavers guide you into the garden from the new bulkhead entrance....
