"Do your planting on the northern and western sides, so at the hottest part of the day, the pool appears cool and inviting, reflecting the overhanging trees."

–Edna Walling
 
A pool, a classic marble fountain,
creeks running through woods.
At the center of a sunken garden, a small pool bordered by lilies, gilded by sunlight - or dark and still. The music of a waterfall... Water, in whatever form, wakes us to the subtle change of light, of atmosphere, happening every moment of the night and day. By design, we make way for the ultimate enjoyment of nature's most calming and enlivening element.
 
"Plants are nature's alchemists, experts at transforming water, soil and sunlight into an array of precious substances, many of them beyond the ability of human beings to conceive."

–Michael Pollan
