Arts & Crafts: Asian Fusion
Borrowing from the oriental tradition of stylizing
nature, GS designed and supervised the installation
of this garden gate, arbor and stairway which supports
a mature wysteria. Working in clear cedar, we created
a structure that is vertical in fact, but tempered
by the delicate horizontal elements spanning the support
posts. The cloud motiff was borrowed from the Shinto
shrine in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Japanese Garden
which represents the god of harvests and planting.
