Description
Working with the physical nature of the site,
we will explore ideas and techniques to enhance and draw
visitors to those sometimes dark and dreary corners of the
garden. Discussions will include plant selection, the
effective use of natural lighting, placement of pathways,
the use of objects both large and small, and signage, among
others.
