Gary Day’s Decorative Wall with Bench was awarded Best Outdoor Living in the 2011 CHENG Concrete Circle of Distinction Design Challenge by judges Fu-Tung Cheng, designer (Cheng Design, Cheng Products, CHENG Concrete), Robert Brunner, industrial designer (Ammunition Group, Fuego), and Dan Gregory, editor and author (Houseplans.com).
With a mastery of materials and a sense of fun, Day has created a playful garden show-stopper that is both beautiful and functional. Its strategic placement in the client’s yard not only delineates outdoor space, but invites the user to explore and interact with its sculptural form.
