02.17.07-02.18.07 - landscape contest at PINT

Then
Now
Future...


This project was done in hopes of winning a Total Gym 1400 through a contest at work. "What would you do to win a Total Gym?" I proposed to relandscape the front area of the office to try to make a better branded front to our company.

The project took 2 long days with several helpers for the demolition and one helper for the installation. We found lots of "prizes" - 2 Vons bags full of dog crap, 2 flasks, a crack pipe, washers and screws, roof tiles, many many beer bottles and cans, a 2 quart bottle that used to hold scotch but now seemed to hold scotch after it's been through the body (I know, ewwwww yuck), and then we found the prize of all prizes - our foreman, Mr. Jack in the Box...

The installation portion contained far fewer surprises and was just a lot of dirty work. I'm pleased with how it went. The logo wasn't precisely what I pictured but it will hopefully fill in well. I know that the impatiens and rosemary will fill in well.
