Artist's Zen

Looking across the driveway, stone bands were used to break up the expanse of concrete across three garage doors and visually connect with the curved, low stone walls that stretch across much of the front garden. These curved bands were used to visually connect the new building with the old to assure visitors they were not separate homes. The narrower band to the right has a slot drain beneath it to capture stormwater that flows through openings in the stone and then into the rain garden. Photo: Vanessa Gardner Nagel, APLD
