Country school

The ongoing project with The Country School in Easton, MD has been maintenance after the installation of two courtyard gardens. The transformation of the Startt Courtyard has turned an uninviting space into one that is endlessly interesting. Our goal was to create an outdoor classroom that could also be used for lunch, play and after hours events.

A second courtyard involved creating seating for 50 during kindergarten lunch hour. These gracefully curved ipe and steel benches were created from our drawings by Three Son's Construction and ER Harvey Metalworking. Surrounding plantings are meant to be tough enough to handle some trampling - and many of them have met the challenge. Hosta, carex, geranium and ferns provide year round interest.
