Our work at the Friends Seminary included the design of a roof terrace over a new building addition. The client requested a Peace Garden so we designed a white garden that features a Dove Tree supported by a line of Serviceberries . Custom planters planted with Inkberry hedges serve as the backdrop for white flowering perennial beds and a raised fountain features water lilies. The shifting geometries are articulated with wood planes formed by wood deck paving, by custom benches supported on metal blades and by curved wood edges at planters.
