AN ALTERNATIVE APPROACH TO LANDSCAPE DESIGN
The past while, I've been immersed in packaging selected landscape features into How-To Manuals.
All of which present step-by-step guides to the Fabrication and Installation of unique landscape elements.
None of which require skilled labor, heavy equipment or wasteful piles of raw materials.
All of which are optimized for cost, durability, and a pleasing aesthetic.
