In 2008, Gardenform collaborated with Stephen Stimson Associates, an award-winning landscape architecture firm located in Falmouth, Massachusetts, to construct their design for an ADA accessibility ramp at the historic Deerfield Academy, in Deerfield, MA.

 

A wide Goshen stone staircase slices through a tightly constructed retaining and sitting wall, providing access to the old gymnasium. Thick capstones span the full length and width of the wall, and the color of individual stones is highlighted under different light and moisture conditions. Wood benches scatter around the garden, and linear bands of cut Goshen stone combine to form a fantastic sitting terrace nestled amongst lush plantings.
