French style...

[Ty Korrigan]

We have been installing an aluminium sliding motorised gate at this property where another company has been installing the garden.

The house is VERY modern and this garden installation reflects the clients desire for low maintenance and modernity.

Just a few images for your interest.

No pics bud

I attached them but once again it has failed...

I repeat, only the gate is our work.

I don't really care much for this style of garden.

It closely resembles those found in the fashionable home magazines.

To me, it is cold, unfeeling and very much of the moment.

Although it totally fits the architecture.

Unlike the timeless ambiance of the English country garden people will be able to pin point this garden to a certain period when it was 'ala mode'

I feel it will age with the property and look dated within a decade.

Agreed Ty..it is very modern/contempary but like you say fits in with the style of the house...I also agree it will appear dated within years....very minimal......nice sliding gates by the way:thumbup:

Nice gate! I've been looking at a similar set up myself. You're right about the styling made me think "I wonder if that's what they said about Art Deco architecture/design?"

I like it. Gonna have to keep those steps well scrubbed to prevent any growth. I wonder if in the coming years, whether they'll have a garden that grows around the sculpture or if they'll keep it prim & clipped.

Slighty reminds me of some japanese min / rock garden. Agree that itll look nice in pictures but to live with it id be sure myself

This house (but not the garden which has been neglected and horriblised since it was put in) was built in .....what year?

Just to say- most everything looks dated even log cabins pick up styling cues from the moment.

Look at the typical 30's 70's 80's 90's estates/ properties. They all have tell tale signs.

Is there a style that is forever young.

Rover- I'm guessing the style of house you show is recent and know you are going to say 20's.
