3. Walled Garden
Brunelli Estate Pergola
is a beautiful lush estate located in
the North Georgia foothills running Pitanque Field
back against the calm Lake Hartwell.
The inspiration behind the grounds
came from the Country estates of Old
France, with massive open grounds, a
small batch vineyard and orchard, large
cental tree allee, small formal gardens,
pitanque field, sporting clays, and
sprawling views around the site.

5. Design for Speed is based at the root of the modern human experience. This is true
as the user of the space will never actually step foot in the park but only pass by the space, a traffic
median. Beginning as a set of nupastels and a traditional Japanese song, the design quickly took form
pulling from the Japanese oil paintings of old. The design depicts a sole climber, the red dot, making
his way up the treacherous slope with being whiplashed by heavy winds. In the final design the winds
have become plantings of ornamental grasses the swirl as traffic passes by with the climber now being
represented by a beautiful Japanese Maple tree. The passer-by will experience the space just as the
climber in the pastel drawing does with the grasses in the site flowing back in forth just as the wind is
depicted.

Vick Family Residence Terrace Section
With the propertly located in the North Georgia Retractable Window Wall
foothills this family residence is carved into
the hills themselves. In order to use the grade
to advantage the backyard landscape/garden is
stepped in terraces with differing areas of use,
from a pergola covered lounge to outdoor dinning
up to a childrens rock climbing boulder and play
area. The terracing backs into a new multi level
guest house with the naturual surrounding kept
in mind. The front of the guest house is a sheer
wall of retractable windows overlooking the hills
below and connecting the guest to the natural
environment

9. UGA Memorial Gardens
At the center of the University of Georgia lies the Miller Learning Center, Tate Student Center, and Sanford
Stadium. This area is a central hub for University Students, Buses, and most activities on Campus. Passersby on
the way to this triangle hub of campus pass directly by the UGA Memorial Garden commemorating those students,
faculty, and university workers who have fallen serving our country in the Armed Forces. The stone benches and 40
White Flowering Dogwoods represent those lives lost, while also giving visitors/students a place for relaxation and
study. The tree groupings, rock outcrops, waterfall and fountain as well as the progression of the terraces from stone
to grass exemplify landscapes that these men and women have faced and the transition from the built to the natural
landscape. The outer stone wall allow for plaques to be placed in remembrance for each individual.

13. The Pomaria Plantation
is located outside the Historic city of Pomaria, South Carolina. The 30 acre site originally held the first plant
nursery in the state of South Carolina, and was home to a wide variety of plants, both native and exotic. Using
the long botanical history of the site, the Pomaria Plantation has been meticulously designed to recapture
the beauty and grandeur it once had. Now home to a beautiful 4 room Bed and Breakfast using the original
Main House of the property, along with 3 pond side cabins housing vistors looking for relaxation or a little
work on the farm, a 4 acre vineyard and fruit farm, wine cellar and tasting facility for the small batch property
