Chateau Bawk Bawk

I designed a vertical garden for a client’s freshly built and devastatingly boring fence in HMB a couple weeks ago. It went from a mundane expansion of fence – to a blanket of lush textures and colors, planted in a way that makes it look like the fence is dripping with foliage and flowers (or, at least that’s how it will look in another couple months as it fills in!). In the process, I notice the contractor on site tossing out old sections of the fence, so I promptly dug them out of the trash and into the back of my pickup.

Hours later (with the help of Dustin, who can build anything out of anything!), they turned into a new coop for my babies.

Presenting: Chateau Bawk Bawk

  1. Very cute, and a great use of materials! The lamps look very exotic, and that sandblasted Manzanita branch is fabulous! I hope your girls appreciate their new digs.

  2. Nice. I like building stuff out of the leftover job materials. Wish I had chickens. I looked after some for a while this summer, but don’t have any of my own. It was so nice having all their eggs.

  3. Hi, this has been a really good read through and I also have bookmarked this website, so I may check back now and then. Cheers!
