GARDENS
Elegant
Simplicity
Creating privacy and elegance on
a blank lot in a commuter suburb of
DC is not an easy thing to do, but
Landscape Architect Gregg Bleam
designed a modern garden that fits
easily into the historic fabric of the
Garrett Park neighborhood. Bleam
developed the plan in conjunction
with the architect’s house design.
The architect, Richard Williams, was
open to this approach, and the result
is a seamless connection between
house and garden.
