I love it because it is modern but also pretty and the swinging bench is so simply constructed (I think I could pull it off myself). It is a well executed rectilinear design that is softened by planting in the gravel and an interesting mix of furnishings. Designed by Hoerr Schaudt Landscape Architects.
Yes, love the bench, except I do wonder, without a back, whether it would ever be very relaxing… I like the way the plants through the gravel soften all the lines making this a far more ‘natural’ looking garden than the minimal structures might suggest.
