Modern Farm Courtyard

Grounded, Anna Boeschenstein In this small space, Grounded was tasked with replanting and re-imagining the entry courtyard of a modern farm house. Working within an existing framework of walls, paving, and mature boxwoods, we developed a strategy for year-round interest. Three stone cubes act as sculptural forms, pull the entry path into three dimensions and add winter life to the garden, which is viewed from the interior on all sides. Monoculture bands of four purple perennial plants come to life at different times throughout the season, creating an ever-changing mosaic of color and texture to the space, all within one cohesive color palette.
