Summer Newsletter 2018
Summer Fun in the Sun
Plants, Health, and Creativity
It's that time of year where we like to spend as much time out of doors as possible, whether it's at the beach or on the patio. In this issue, we are sharing our favorite summer recipe and our newest patio project that brings a wall to life.
*NEWS FLASH* Earlier this year we began doing Lunch and Learns with local architects and designers sharing the incredible benefits of plants in our built environment. This fun and creative presentation is called, Beyond Aesthetics: Plants, Health, and Creativity. Bring us in to your office today for a deep dive into the world of plants!

Santa Barbara Riviera
We had such a wonderful time designing with this fun and fabulous client thanks to Hayley Bridges of Hayley Bridges Design! Hayley aptly describes her Client's aesthetic as a "playful combination of mid-century modern meets bohemian. She is not afraid of color and pattern, so we had a lot of fun making sure every space had a harmony of color, pattern, coziness and modern elements." And we had fun integrating this into her Lush Elements piece that brought her patio wall to life and acts as a sweet backdrop for enjoying fresh cocktails outdoors with friends and family...
About This Wall
Because this Lush Living Wall is located outside, we got to design with a couple of unique species of ferns, the Staghorn Fern and Ptemis Ferns. We also incorporated the Sunburst Aeonium succulent at the bottom to tie in the landscape and for the pop of beautiful color. There's even Spanish Moss nestled in for effect!
