This truly unique and natural concept was designed without a single straight line to break the usual 'conventional' residence design ideas. Highlighted upon entry is a raised rock water feature spilling from the base of a large specimen oak tree and collecting into a meandering 'stream' before joining a small water basin with bubbling fountains. With incredibly detailed stonework, unique specimen trees and plantings and a distinctive fireplace, this illustrious residence shows the potential of unique theme and exquisite installation
