carries along the side of the garage, tying it in nicely. The steps are wide enough to accommodate plant pots which gives the couple lots of variety for planting options. “With raised beds and by adding flower pots we can mitigate the mood points,” Paul says of the reasoning. “Basic simple rules are to hide the straight lines and corners of the house and garage. We achieved this by making the layout extend along the wall of the garage. Planter pots soften the line of cold siding and we have created a space where we can manipulate coloures with unlimited variety for change.” “It was a total consultative process from start to finish. He talked us through the project and it became a nice blend of vision, artistry and sensible ideas that were both practical and pragmatic. He gave us an ‘a-la-carte’ style estimate that was easy to understand and he didn’t try to upsell,” says Hilary of the process. The Joudrey’s were impressed with the professionalism of
the Vangils team. Paul works on site with his team and enjoys the hands on approach. Workers arrived on time every morning and the job site was left tidy at the end of every day. When the 4 ½ day project was complete, they took extra care to make sure the entire area was cleaned up. “The result is, we have an interesting front entrance with a gradual curve done with stone work. We also have a curved patio with a raised bed under our front window and tear drop bed in the yard which directs traffic flow. Now the focus is all about the entrance. We were so impressed right from start to finish. Our home is now a point of interest with a landscape that is unique and personal,” Hilary says with pride. “We now need to talk with him about back our yard.”
