Repurposed materials mingled with modern ingenuity and
imagination transformed an eyesore into a rock star! A long
neglected rose garden and outdoor wall were transitioned into
a fully functional rain garden and aesthetically pleasing
property divider. Utilizing reclaimed lumber from a defunct
North Portland restaurant and river stone, the
outdoor wall became a modern backdrop for a rain garden
designed to collect rooftop and pavement runoff. Additionally,
turf stone sowed with an ecology grass mix soften the concrete
grid to create an urban prairie.
