Unrealizable Projects
I go through phases when it comes garden design. When an intriguing element catches my attention and if it seems to be buildable, I usually move right onto design-build production. Sometimes it is a bit extemporaneous. I just got to see the outcome in front of me asap!! (buzzed)
But it is not the case for the majority of times. Then an unrealizable project manifests into a peculiar obsession of researching and image collection as if I am gathering resources for a soon to be built project. I have copious numbers of digital collections in my C drive that I am going to implement “someday.”
Hell.
Today on a metro ride back home, flipping through some of the images I have, I thought to myself: Why don’t I give it a shine through Steemit? It is the perfect, the most an adequate platform for this! no?
Here I go -
Conservatory
I am going to start the series with a conservatory - one of the small cottage projects I wanted to execute at my current home. Last spring, I started to grow a desire to have an outdoor indoor room as the weather was getting warm. I romanticized that reciprocal space between a master bedroom and a patio, where I can sit out to get sun but still in my indoor pj’s and comfort while embracing full privacy... That room. I needed it.

via Pinterest. "Lean To" type would work well with our apt.
our patio, looking from inside:
and I visualized:
definitely realizable... I thought
At the time, I worked at a studio where I had full and free access to a fabrication shop. It is definitely a manageable project to build with a very small amount of budget - I can buy couple 2x4s, chop them off in measures, make a woodframe, install couple greenhouse plastics for covering. I ran numbers - cost estimation for 14’x 6’ greenhouse for 400 $. Done.

via Pinterest. This would have been the closest except the flooring

via Pinterest. Not the low wall but floor decking was feasible
BUT knowing how NYC winter can completely destroy things, I knew it was not really about the cost or construction. It is just impossible to maintain and sustain a wooden structure on a New York rooftop throughout whole four seasons... I could already see loads of rotten wood scraps and a bundled up plastic window-y thing ending up in a trashcan.

I have not given up yet. When I move to a right place where I can fully build something, I am just gona go for it. Going to realize my long time coming dream and delete the folder forever.
It will be soon

목재 온실 하우스가 플라스틱으로 바뀌었군요..
뉴욕도 많이 습한 가바요...^^*
안녕하세요 한우님
목재 트리트먼트해도 계절을 잘 못견디는것 같아요 -
흠...
외부에서는 preservative tree를 써야 될걸요?
여기 공원이나 야외용 의자는 전부 방부목으로 해용 ^^*
예산 맞추다가 결국 포기한 작업이예요.
계절 잘 견디고 좋은 나무들은 너무 비싸요ㅠㅠ
처음 듣는 음악인데, 참 좋네요.
가만히 듣고 있으면 mintvilla님의 사진과 글들이 떠오르게 하네요.
개인을 표현하는 느낌이란 다 그렇게 형성되나 봅니다. 일종의 자기 브렌드 현상? ^^;
ㅎㅎㅎㅎ 안녕하세요bygon님 -
저의 노동요예요 -
작업할 때 듣는 노래 공유하면 재밌잖아요. 좋게 봐주셔서 고맙습니다.
한국의 겨울은 저희집 난방비를 파괴했습니다.
헉 소요님 - 추운 겨울 나셨군요.
봄이 슬슬 올테니 기다려보자구요 -
정말 멋진 공간이 탄생하겠군요 ㅎ
저도 이런 공간을 하나 만들어보고 싶습니다.
안녕하세요 양평님 -
생각보다 만드는게 어렵지 않아요
주말 프로젝트로 한번 만들어 보시는 것도
좋을 수 있을것 같아요 !
생각해보면 집 건물 구조상 우리나라는 온실이 별로 없는 것 같아요. 아파트는 베란다가 있기는 하지만, 그래도 주택에서 외국 느낌의 온실을 기대하는 것은 조금 무리가 있나봐요 ㅠㅠ 개인 정원이 딸린 집에서나 가능하려나요..
tip!

베란다에서 식물을 키우고 있는
예가체프투샷이라고 합니다^^
온실관련 포스팅에 마음을 빼앗겨 이렇게
댓글을 답니다^^ 개인주택을 지을수 있는
날이 온다면 꼭 제 온실을 가지고 싶네요^^
좋은구경 많이 하고 갑니다!
리스팀으로 담아갑니다!!^^
예가체프2샷님 안녕하세요-
반갑습니다 ☺️
저와같이 식물러버 이신가봐요!
온실을 짓는 그 날까지 🙏🏻
블로그 놀러가겠습니다
영국에도 컨설베이토리가 참 많은데 여러모로 유용하더라구요. 해가 날떄는 온도가 올라가 따뜻하기도하고.. 식물기르기에도 딱 좋은 환경이되고 여러모로 이득인것같아요 ^^
옥자님 안녕하세요-
말씀처럼 유용하고 아늑하고
계절즐기기에 정말 최적화된 실내 공간같아요. ☺️
