The farmhouse was located in an expansive open space with a spattering of existing trees. This provided an opportunity to create a complete landscape experience from the entry to the farmhouse. So the landscape is designed to create a tropical experience while reaching the farm house. Tropical plants, a lotus pond, and a water feature enclose the walkway to bring about this experience. The focal point, anchored by the water feature, has an element of live fire to add to the rustic experience of the farmhouse.
