Private Garden

Schenectady, New York

 

As part of a major renovation project, LAndArt Studio provided a garden master plan and installation oversight for this residence, located across the street from Schenectady's Central Park Rose Garden.  The first phase, implemented in fall of 2014 and spring of 2015, focused on the front garden, creating beds that ground the house in the landscape, complement the adjacent Central Park Rose Garden, and create a colorful and dynamic display for all seasons. The second phase was completed in 2016 and focused on the private garden behind the house. Once an open lawn with minimal plantings, the large space is now a series of garden rooms and includes two terraces, a promenade, a stone seatwall, a formal perennial garden, shade gardens and an open glade.
