A Beautiful Garden
Having a wonderful garden is one of my dreams. Beautiful landscape, shiny greenhouse, modern utensils, hidroponic farm, and colourful plants included in one large yard around my dream house. It would be nice, relaxable and comfortable, not only for me but also for my family. In colonial gardening, peoples usually choose the vast they want to plant in their garden. In mine, I prefer to put every plants with such organized pattern. Such as Perennials, shrubs, climbers, trees, grasses, ferns, bamboos, bulbs, fruit, hedging, Mediterranean plants, bedding plants, and roses.

Making several changes is needed to bring a gorgeous garden landscape. Adding elevated steps to the front of my house door to add another dimension and texture, framed with bright-color flowers and plants. When colonial gardening is well known because their labyrinth path, I would rather build winding path, formed by white rocky road and snaked borders. In the middle of the front, there will be round medium-size fountain which functioned to reflect the sunlight. Well-conditioned bushes, small trees, rounded stone, and small pond on the left side of winding path. The opposite side will decorated with floral variety border arranged with roses, catmint, delphinium and rare plants.
An Enjoyable Farm and House

Beside of having a garden, there's no other way to keep in touch with the nature, except by adding more creatures like animal. In certain way, they are better than the plants. It can move and has relaxing sound. I love to hear the sound of clucking chickens, mooing cattles, chirping grasshoppers, quacking ducks, barking dogs, purring cats, and many more. That's why I really want to have a farm someday.

As I live in the farm, there are two ideas for the housing style : modificate the barn into housebarn or build it separately from my house. The first idea is reflecting the housing style in american country and rural area such as Ohio, Texas, and Alabama. By modificating the barn, the advantages are my family and I as the owner doesn't have to walk outside while feeding or watching a medical issue on the animals such as birth of young animal. But the disadvantages are the animal noises, which often can be disruptive when an animal has sick and there are unwanted pests like mice. In the contrary, when I decide to build it separately, it maybe easier to control the noises, house or barn expansion, but it's getting harder to protect the animals. Consider to the problems that may caused by the condition above, I prefer to build the house with normal housing style and build the barn at the outside.

Despite build a normal house, I still want to build it with housebarn style, but its function just like the other houses. Through the solid and strong structure, the house will be exposed with dark green teak woods for indoor installations. Bright dining room with open layout, light colored walls, and a vintage poster of cow hanged on the wall. In the bedroom, there will be two large antique beds and oil lamps from the early of 1900s to bring more historical nuances. Right in front of my room, I put a floor-to-ceiling bookcase which holds a collection of farming vintage books such as the history of the farm, instruction, list of the tools we have, harvesting record, and marketing. All of those are based on our farm experiences.
