Earth Designs Garden Design and Build were asked to created a landscape and propose garden design in Hawkwell, London*. Here are the details of the project
The clients , Jon and Karen, have lived at the property for over 10 years. Whilst they have done some minor landscaping with the addition of decking in the last few years, they feel that the space has more potential. They called Earth Designs as they felt no-one locally to them could deliver the sort of look they are after. They require the space to be multi functional with an adult area and somewhere for their son to have some fun. Whilst they don’t want the garden to be ‘kiddie-centric’ they do want Jazz, their son, to be able to engage with the garden. To this end they would like a ‘grow-your-own’ area. They currently have a out building in the garden which they use infrequently as a bar area. This also houses a running machine. Whilst they are keen to retain the option of having an indoor bar, the size of structure does not justify the amount of garden wasted, so we need to find an alternative solution. They prefer calm colours and plan to spend a lot of time in the garden.
This design divides this small sub-urban garden into several distinct functional areas. Attractive, amber-coloured Yellow Balau hardwood decking will be laid directly adjoining the house to create a stylish and durable entrance to the space. Two eye-catching paths lead from either side of the decking up the garden to a small artificial lawn in the right hand corner. The paths will be constructed from 35cm squares of toughened recycled glass panels set into a sea of coloured glass mulch.
The main seating/dining area will be in the bottom left of the garden. An L-shaped rendered block raised bed constructed along the left and rear boundaries will enclose a rectangular decked patio, which will house a freestanding decked table and matching cube stools . Ample seating will be provided by an L-shaped decking bench fixed to the side of the raised bed walls.
Bespoke timber pergolas will enclose the lawn, seating area and glass mulch pathways. Constructed from 90mm x 90mm Yellow Balau posts and beams, these structures will feature a variety of ’alcoves’ in the sides, some of which will also boast coloured Perspex ‘windows’ for that extra ‘wow’ factor.
A bespoke log cabin summer house will be installed along the sideway to house the client’s bar and running machine. This will be built to exact specifications to fit the dimensions of the sideway, with full length windows and double louvre doors at the garden end and a door at the opposite end. This door will act as a gate to access the garden from the front of the house.

On Camp Casey in Dongducheon May 1, officials of the U.S. Army Garrison Red Cloud and Area I hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the grand re-opening of the Carey Physical Fitness Center, which had been closed since October for a $1.8 million renovation. The newly redone facility includes a greatly enlarged weight room dedicated to free weight workouts, a fully renovated court for basketball and volleyball, private rather than the former communal showers, a modern, functional sauna room, newly re-done aerobics and spin cycle rooms, and a trophy room to showcase unit sports achievements, among other improvements. Also scheduled as part of the grand re-opening was a cake-cutting, and later, a basketball tournament and an awards ceremony. The Fitness Center reopens with new hours: Monday through Thursday, 5:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.; Friday, 5:30 a.m. to midnight; Saturday, 8 a.m. to midnight; Sunday, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. — U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt.

Bella and Stella (my latest girl) are keeping me company as I try to finish up BlytheCon goodies. Their cuteness keeps me working hard and happy when I take breaks admiring and playing with them.
This is the sixth fully functional LEGO tank MOC I've build. It's a fictional design, not based of an existing tank, though I was inspired by the LEGO tank Gyuta97 has build.
You can find a video of this MOC at: youtu.be/PNOXMTCWgFs
I use this every day, and it's lovely. I can't imagine how old it is, but it never jams, and works better than any other stapler I've tried.
PRESIDIO OF MONTEREY, Calif. -- Garrison Commander Col. Paul Fellinger dedicated a new Functional Fitness Training Facility inside the Price Fitness Center here April 7.

Artist Statement
In today's commercialized, mechanized, specialized, computerized homogenized, society, the act of producing handmade pottery is one of social commentary. Mass produced commercial dinnerware and kitchenware are economical and readily available to fulfill our daily functional needs. In this light, creating individual ceramic vessels by hand is inefficient and even archaic. Indeed, any business person will tell you that there are easier ways to make a living.
The creation of handmade pottery resists the ceaseless homogenization of our society. There are very few objects in contemporary society that are produced by a single person beginning with their own design and taking raw materials through an entire process resulting in a final product. This kind of act of creation resonates powerfully in our collective history and psyche, but is becoming less and less common in today's world.
As such, the creation of unique handmade pottery questions the direction our society is moving. It asks questions about what our society is leaving behind as we hastily press relentlessly towards "progress". What are we losing when we consume industrial goods? What are we losing when fewer and fewer of us have the capacity to create a finished product from raw, materials? What are we losing when regional styles and differences vanish? And are we even aware of such loses?
Issues of individualism, sense of place, the creative spirit, and the role of dishes in social and family rituals are all brought into question. Indeed, the act of producing unique handmade pottery is a far more political act than it initially appears to most.

One third size model of a British Detroit sight feed lubricator as used on the fullsize locomotive, this one is not functional as I use a mechanical unit.
The HDPS is capable of performing complex heat treatments on sheet steel in controlled atmospheres before dipping in a bath of molten zinc alloy.
The HDPS allows us to investigate the interactions between the steel substrate and the coating before making changes in order to improve the final product. We are able to alter the chemistry of the bath to investigate the role of micro-additions on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of coatings.
This is the only HDPS in a European University and was built to our specification.
Sarah Palin with her family. You can see her daughter, Bristol is holding hands with the father of her child and then boyfriend. Even though there is family drama behind the scenes they pull it together for the camera. Every political family has to appear to be normal so that they can win the election.
