This project was a 6' Privacy Fence with all exposed 4x4 posts. The fence was trimmed out with 1x4's and the posts were trimmed with 2-piece caps. Amazing looking fence.
Earth Designs Garden Design and Build were asked to created a landscape and propose garden design in Maida Vale, London*. Here are the details of the project
Brief: The client desired a stylish and sophisticated outdoor room, with enough space for entertaining, dining and relaxing and for playing. The long garden was south facing yet still heavily shaded by neighbouring buildings at its base and by mature trees. Privacy was a major issue, not only from properties on either side, but also from the flats above.
Solution: The garden is on two levels with the main area adjoining the house containing two separate areas for dining and for entertaining and relaxation. Flooring throughout is large rectangular cream travertine paving.
The main focal point of the garden is a large timber structure with integrated shelving and cream travertine topped fixed bench seating around the base. This structure has two open doorways to allow entry from different points in the space, and is ornamented on all sides with a selection of decorative fillers placed within individual alcoves. A dining area to the right of the space features a raised bed rendered block bed on which a long railway sleeper bench seat has been fixed. Three tall tapering slate planters on the opposite side to the dining area give a sense of balance to the space.
The back section of the space is on a higher level and is accessed by wide steps to the right of the cube structure. The upper garden features an artificial lawn surrounded by a travertine tiled pathway. The focal point of the upper garden is a large garden office in the bottom right hand corner.
Planting in the space is simple, low maintenance and elegant, featuring box balls and box hedging in the lower garden and tall willowy bamboo in the upper garden.
The garden is elegantly lit throughout. A set of low voltage downlighters illuminate individual alcoves in the timber cube, while stainless steel spotlights on the side wall and on each of the four corners of the cube provide ample light to the seating and dining areas. In-ground uplighters serve to highlight the planters to the left hand side and a series of low voltage lights give a calming glow to the upper garden.
Testimonial: Earth Designs were great to work with. We spoke with four designers and we found their design to be more unique and in line with what we were looking for. They listened and understood our brief and created something perfect. It was also within our budget and stood out from all the others. Their team worked efficiently and professionally throughout the project and delivered a beautiful garden on time that exceeded our expectations. We love the garden and it has become an extension of our own house. It is easy to manage and we are absolutely delighted with the results and service we received. We would recommend them over and over again.

A couple of private booths. I like how the fabric acts as a barrier, but it still allows contact with the rest of the enviironment.
How far will you let your potential employer snoop into your private life? Would you give up your privacy for a scholarship? It turns out that employers, schools and scholarships have been asking for passwords to Facebook for a while. And even when they don’t ask for passwords, they may ask to friend or view your Facebook page by either friending the HR recruiter or a potential boss.

Earth Designs Garden Design and Build were asked to created a landscape and propose garden design in Walthamstow, London*. Here are the details of the project
The Mosaic Garden in Walthamstow, London E17
BRIEF:
This small garden was a completely blank canvas – an unappealing patch of concrete with a small, overgrown area of lawn in one corner. Surrounded by other gardens on all sides, the space benefited from high, rendered block walls, giving it a strong sense of privacy and providing a secluded environment that allowed for a variety of planting possibilities.
SOLUTION:
Taking inspiration from Anton Gaudi’s Parc Guell in Barcelona, this garden features curved and undulating raised beds that flow organically around the space. Intricately adorned with colourful hand-laid mosaic patterns, these beds slope gently upwards from their lowest point in the left hand corner. The centre of the space features a kidney shaped area of artificial turf (chosen to withstand the attentions of the household dog) edged with a variety of earth toned tiles and surrounded by a hard flooring comprising a mixture of decorative pea shingle and plum coloured paddlestones in black dyed concrete.
The entertaining possibilities of the garden are enhanced by the integration of a free standing hot tub in the top left of the space, and curved fixed-bench seating in the top right corner. The seating area benefits from a bespoke kidney shaped wooden table with built in patio heater, allowing ample space for summertime alfresco dining.
The high block walls are adorned with mosaic panels in a chequerboard pattern, each panel individually designed and hand laid. Added privacy to the space is provided by rusted steel trellis set into the top of the walls, through which a variety of vines and creepers are trained. The boundaries are given extra embellishment with the inclusion of an assortment of wall-mounted sculpture, lanterns, planters and other ephemera.
Planting is eclectic with a multitude of big architectural

Toronto, April 4, 2018 - The so-called right to be forgotten is coming to Canada. Earlier this year, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner released a draft policy claiming the right for individuals to remove certain search engine results already exists within current privacy laws. Should Canadians welcome a version of this European law? Or are the trade-offs for Charter-protected access to information too great? At this half-day summit, privacy experts explored the intersection of reputation and freedom of expression,and the implications for Canada.

I am thrilled that these two have each other. Both thrive on intimacy and affection. Best bed buddies. They share the catbed on top of the manschest just about every afternoon. Here they are cuddling on the couch while I sat on the floor working on the computer. Yes, on the floor. Well, the couch was crowded. . . Raven and Gumbo were there as well, and I didn't want to disturb them. The room was dark, but I turned on the lamp to take the photo. Couldn't resist. Doesn't it feel like we are invading a private moment? Am I being scolded?
