Details, details, details…

This is such an amazing landscape that I wanted to point out some of the interesting and uncommon details.  Notice the use of the spheres in the stairway design and in the finial balls under the pot shelves.  Spheres are not commonly used in exterior architecture, so they awaken and attract the eye yet the geometry is pleasing. The square verses circular pots have been chosen and placed carefully, which is exemplified well with the square pots both in front of the porte cochere and in the front entry cut-out.  The small details such as the mow strip in the driveway and the pebble borders around the patios give the feel that everything has been meticulously considered and executed.
