        This larger pondless waterfall was on the magazine cover of Architectural Digest. This pondless waterfall was constructed in the town of Watermill in South Hampton of Long Island NY. This property is surrounded by acres

      of land and the waterfall has a great visual, facing this large log cabin custom built home. 

        Aquascape Designs, who is one of the largest

      water feature product distributors in the U.S.,  asked Pond Paradise Designs to be involved in creating and building this water feature.

      I was honored to be asked to help design and construct this water feature in this beautiful location by Aquascape Designs.

         The water feature was a successful build and  

      it was a great experience working with the one

      and only Ed Beaulieu, the renowned legendary water feature specialist of Aquascape Designs.

         The home owner enjoys this beautiful water

      feature and has guests stay at this home.

      They are fascinated with the beauty of this waterfall in the outside natural surroundings.

         Pond Paradise Designs has been in a few magazines over the years. Our superior

      water feature art has been published in national magazines and I have recieved

      very high ranking in photo contests and won awards. I was honored to be published.  

          In the future with our unique artistic ability, Pond Paradise Designs is capable to 

      be in more magazine articles and books. I do not pursue to advertise and to promote

      this way. If I am asked by a publisher to be in a magazine or book, I would probably 

      accept the offer and be glad to share my water features with the world. 

      Pond Paradise Designs.....

           You can have a very nice garden with a pond, lawn, shrubs, and some perennial or        

       annual plants for color. But when the flowers fade and the shrubs are green and

      dormant for winter, it's the structure, or hardscape, in a garden that can make things

      really intersting and attractive.

                                                                      Year - long Interest

          Hardscape - elements such as arbors, sculptures, gazebos, potting sheds, obelisks, fountains, fences, trellises, stone, bricks, benches, and other permanent features

      offers interest all year long. That's especially important in colder climates when there

      maybe little color in the garden. And since we can't always be in our gardens, structures

      give us something interesting to look at from indoors.

           Depending on your taste, as well as the style of your garden and your house, these elements may be fanciful or formal, ornate or simple, contemporary, rustic or Victorian.

      They can be subtle colors or vibrant focal points. People want a garden and want color,

      but more important is the layout. If you have the space, you want to create vistas and destinations. A water feature is always a great destination, but an arbor or a pergola,

      which is a long, stretched version of an arbor, is a way to draw visitors to the pond.

       

                         A gazebo is the ultimate outdoor room. When placed beside
                       a backyard pond and stream, in a peaceful woodland setting.

      A place to spend tranquil time by your water feature

      An Asian - inspired gazebo

      Islandia NY

         If an arbor is a doorway and a pergola is a hallway, the gazebo is the ultimate

      outdoor room. " The gazebo is a tranquil escape and it can add more time spent by

      a water feature, " says Rob Riccardo of Pond Paradsie Design in Islandia, New York. Riccardo and his dad built a attractive colorful gazebo. An Asian style teahouse for

      his dad's garden. A unique one of a kind structure with incredible wood work.

         A garden design sometimes begins with a idea about a place, a photo, a poem,

      or some other element. In this case,the two artists hit upon the gazebo idea when

      Robs father pulled out old photographs of his Navy travels to Japan. They voted to

      build a different type of gazebo, a asian tea house. The yard had a nice landscape 

      and a few water features but had no gazebo. This was one of the finishing touches in the yard, which had years of designing and building involved.

         The larger pond and much of the garden can be seen from the tea house. 

      The Asian feeling of the garden is enhanced by six water features and a beautiful landscape. A variety of specimen trees surround the yard such as Japanese maples, weeping blue atlas cedars, Norway spruce, Weeping cherry and more. There is also

      a big variety of colorful plants throughout the yard. Mossy rocks and a few Asian

      style statues are placed in strategic places in the landscape. 

          The entry arbor features an elaborate arch. The Riccardos highligted the tea house

      and arbor arches with decorations and red and green stain. A 36 inch gong hangs in

      the tea house and could be heard far away. The interior has benches to sit and relax spending quality time enjoying the view. " The tea house is like a little getaway

      outside." Riccardo said. 

          Similar structures can be as simple or as elaborate as resources will afford.

      For this  client, the Riccardos designed four ponds with water falls, a stream and two

      besalt rock fountainscapes nearby. This is a backyard Pond Paradise.
