This contemporary garden room has the look, feel and scale of any well designed interior room, translated to an outdoor environment, using suitable materials. The size of the garden is meant to be suitable for a small scale ‘urban’ situation, be it a terrace or a town house backyard. However, an outdoor room is easily incorporated into any size garden as part of a successful design. Green elements such as the salvaged wood in the floor design and decorative screens are incorporated where possible, to promote sustainability.

People’s Choice Award – Canada Blooms 2007
Canada Blooms 2007 – East meets West
The intent for the booth was to create a space that reflects Sanders interest in Eastern culture. Sander wanted to create a space that is pleasing to the senses, as well to provide a haven for inner calm, a space where order and geometry is steeped in tradition, symbolism and meaning. Easter and western elements in the garden symbolize both cultures and a sculpture knot represents their tying together. An old timber gateway salvaged from a property in Ontario is mirrored by a lattice screen with a Chinese moon gate. Bamboo behind the Moon Gate symbolizes the Chinese bamboo forest. Chinese calligraphy and painting from a local artist show art from both cultures.
The booth won the People’s choice award in the small garden category.
