Outbuildings, fences and stone wall are all custom-designed
and built by island craftsmen.
The garden shed was designed and built by an island artist/contractor.
Curved brackets on the garden shed are echoed in the design of the wood shed, stylistically unifying these two delightful outbuildings.
The same artist/contractor also designed and built the wood shed.
Firewood is neatly stacked in the wood shed, and ready for fueling the wood stove insert on a snowy winter's day.

Artful details make these buildings special.
The red foliage of a Japanese maple amplifies the red door of the garden shed.
The fence is designed to reflect and enhance the structure of the apple trees, and to provide privacy and a feeling of enclosure.
The fence and garden, articulated with a dusting of snow in winter.
The fence (newly built in these two pictures) gracefully follows the slant of the driveway.
The fence is a backdrop for the ornamental garden.
Blossom-laden Gravenstein apple tree branches cascade over the fence.
