Another custom detail wrapped up in this large project. We designed and built this enclosure to hide the equipment for the large water feature, yet still allow easy access for maintenance. The wood exterior is brown balau hardwood decking. Complete with full access front doors and a hinged top with gas struts. We began with an underground vault for the equipment but some site changes switched to moving the equipment above ground but it all still needed to be hidden from view.

We recently completed 6 of these custom raised planters to be used in the horticultural therapy program at A.G. Rhodes. We designed the beds for 6 balconies on the new building. The beds are constructed to be enjoyed for many years, utilizing Brazilian Ipe, Brown Balau, marine grade plywood and an EPDM interior liner with integrated drainage and irrigation. These will allow the joy of gardening to be available to people with different levels of mobility.
