Zen garden

1st Apr. '08 • Category: Home & Garden • Tags: , , ,

Authored by Kate Smith

In my search for simple yet sophisticated courtyard designs I found this courtyard garden designed by Topher Delaney for a home in San Francisco.

This very sleek design caught my eye because although it is an adult only space (maybe a bit too ‘kid unfriendly’ for my lifestyle) I am drawn to the beauty in its simplicity. Plus I loved the use of blue light to highlight the edge.

See a slide show of the Zen garden.

Interesting how the more immersed I get in my creative endeavors the more I desire uncomplicated and very clean surroundings. Do you ever feel the same?   SensationalColor.com

    Yes! Just yesterday I purged and got rid of so many things I once cherished. I looked at them yesterday as clutter and clogging not only my apartment but my creativity. Adios and I have no regrets.
    To quote Adina from “Absolutely fabulous” I need surfaces!!

    I love the quote.

    I too had many things I once loved turn to clutter. Funny how our views change.

    Someone once told me that when you lose your faith in people you put your faith in things. Luckily I have such wonderful people surrounding me that I need little else!

    Not a garden for wearing a floaty long dress through! Nice to see they kept the beautiful tree with the stunning trunk.

    You’re right Natasha. A filmy gown and a bit of breeze could spell disaster.
