WEEKEND GETAWAY

GREENWICH \ CONNECTICUT

Situated on an extremely compact site between two prominent buildings, The Weekend Entertainment Garden functions as a central meeting place for outdoor family gatherings in a setting that is at once intimate and varied. The garden exists in an area that previously was a completely paved space and provides ample areas for secluded al fresco leisure. With the skillful and tasteful incorporation of hardscape elements and plantings that delineate circulation and areas for leisure and recreation, an organized garden and unique space for activity was created, in a setting of sheltered seclusion from neighbors and the adjacent roadway.
