You literally on Monday you phoned in somebody and said we need life plants. No, no, no, I said I need the best life plants that you have right now today. That's awesome. I love this edge here where it's not gravel throughout just a little bit of moss. I love how you're mossing the joints and stuff in there. You're even treating that log a lot like you treat your edges. And you've got to, well, I think we're so close to putting down some turf and then it might be a miller time. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. What do you think? Maybe. April! I'm going to go down right there again. What on earth are you doing? Where did these come from? These came from my secret plant source. I phoned a friend and they made sure. So you literally on Monday you phoned in somebody and said we need life plants. No, no, no, I said I need the best life plants that you have right now today. That's awesome. So I actually, you've got lilies and everything, huh? Yeah. Let's go see what you've done over here. It had this long piece of it. Kind of look like this was going to do pretty much. Do something. Even if it's trash, probably. So there's a bunch of the least here. Yeah, there's a bunch of topical alleys there. There's some parrots there. There's some zoo-sips, coax down here because that grows right across the bottom. So it's cool you can kind of make a turf. Some fog lilies that really planted a little deep. But that would be fine. Our purposes, we will have over here some forget-me-not. Oh nice. My favorite and parents feather. My second favorite. More Joseph Pope. Another tropical lily. That's awesome. There we have a separate lily somewhere here. We've got some Chinese lovelia and a couple other things to make. Awesome. Johnny, what's going on? I brought the carnies. Just some final touches down here. Oh, little bits of things. These beautiful plants that she brought. Don't ask me to sound smart. Tell you what they're called. Looks like bog bean of some sort. These aquatic plants. There we go, aquatic. Green side up. I need an airmill over here to sound smart for milkweed. And cover for milkweed. Milkweed. Yes. Awesome. For the monarch butterflies. Well, really those that noon time too long. That would be cool. That would be cool. That would be cool. That's what we need to do. Like release the doves. I love this edge here where it's not graveled out. Just a little bit of moss. I love how you're mossing the joints and stuff in there. You're even treating that log a lot like you treat your edges. And you've got one edge over here that you just love. You said it really reminds you the smoky mountains. The whole thing really is. It's the leaf greens and the driftwood. It's not a lot of colorful flower stuff. Yeah, totally. You get your carnivorous plants in there. So this edge is incredible. And you can see how it could very easily just look like a vein of gravel back in here. But just adding a couple aquatic plants in there. And then really knowing what the water height is. Pulling one stone to the outside. Yep. Of the liner right there. Instead of working on within the inside. So what is it for? But bothering me that the liner just went straight through it. Yeah. And the rocks are kind of held on the liner tight right there. Sure. But we had to work with. And we had, you know, we need a walkway in a place where to relax. I can't tell if it's madness. So, but get one on the outside. Really, I think important. So this is the rock that he's referring to on the outside. And if you guys can picture that. Like, so we've got this incredible stump right here. And just to have a pocket of gravel here or a liner gravel. Would look weird without that rock back behind it. So carrying boulders out past it. Even like notice how John came over here. Set that one off into the soil. To me that rock was so important. Just so your eyes drawn back here. It actually helps change the shape of the pond. Because both of us weren't loving this straight line. This is an artistic right here. Right here. You're self, right? Right. Because there's always something you find. But yeah, I like everything you can do to lose that straight edge. So now your eye follows the rock. Not so much the water line. And then water coming in there and doing this. Adding that little pocket of carnivorous. So these are. Just a couple of stonework and the line in here. That's a big thing. And then the way that he gave it a hard edge out here. We'll be able to bring that turf right in and just wrap it into that order. And those colors are just going to bring all that out. Make it go. Well, let's go. Let's go. It's going to do. It's looking incredible. I think we're so close to putting down some turf. And then it might be a miller time. Oh, yeah. Might be. Maybe. Well, the other way. What's up? Yeah, we're done. It's done. What's up? Yeah. I'm done. I'm done. You're done. Okay. Now we're done. Okay. Thank you. I'm done. Thank you. And then we'll go to bed. We're done. Okay. Okay. And then we'll go to bed. Okay. That's it. Okay. Okay. Good. Good. And then we're done. You finished. an awesome job. It's actually incredible. I know it was stressful, but before we even get into like the roller coaster of emotions and everything that happened out here with the build, what were your expectations when Greg was asking you to do something in the sandbox studio? It's like what went through your head? He's lost his mind. He's started. He's not going to build a house inside my garage. So that you guys can come to a home show that no one will ever come to. Yeah. I know. This is brilliant. I've been by my work. That's one way to look at it. Were you happy you did it? Yeah, absolutely. You know, I think it gives us a chance to showcase what can be done and what our style is. You know, to me, I put so much pressure on myself. Doesn't it's artist of the year thing? Wow. So overwhelming. Like, I just take it to the heart that we are in obligation to all the prime builders in the entire universe to uplift the industry based on receiving that award. Oh, and you did. I mean, you killed it. I mean, it's little things from like removing the post on the part of the lot. It's matching the boulder around the deck. It's you bringing your own stumps and ordering an aquatic plants because you knew April, you know, but in all the moss and everything else, like, you're so focused on the little detail things and that's why you were artist of the year. That's why I needed three more days. I mean, it should just get a complete finish. I love your design. I think my favorite thing is 100% the way the stepping stones come right off the deck across the water. And then the use of the turrets for me, this is the most replicable backyard that we've done so far. Like, so many people are going to be able to build like this in their backyard. All right, it's a wrap. I'm sitting here with really kind of maybe the brains behind the operation over here, the crew of modern design. And I thought it'd be important to kind of get there, take their first sandbox studio build and what their expectations, what their takeaways and all that kind of stuff was. Tristan, what you built in the back corner is pretty cool. Is it nerve-racking working for your dad when he gives you a design on a cocktail napkin and then comes in and says, that's not what I was a picturing. Yeah. I'm mind boggling to have that happen to say you've had something in the works for six weeks and that you've got this idea and designing your head by a second napkin drawing and the dirty new deep in it by the time you realize it's so you just kind of have to roll with what you got but it ends up he was happy in the long run but I'm still curious to see it turned out he's talking it turned yeah it turned out amazing it knocked it out of the park hunter the man the myth the legend patio king of the world did you enjoy it or was it a pain in the ass I mean it's kind of a pain. It's used to be like two and a second black stone and then going to six and six black stone but I never cut into favors before either so it's all kind of new you absolutely killed it looks good Nick I didn't see you do much of anything but I'm just here to look good man that's all I do. I definitely worth some comedic relief here in there and definitely when necessary but no supported everybody really really well is it something you'd want to do again absolutely yeah this was awesome getting to work with all you guys it was fantastic that's great definitely. The guys are modern design you know everybody's got a leader but without solid team just like we have just like modern design has just like all the other artists of the year they can't focus on what they do best without guys like that. Thank you so much for all your help we enjoyed it you later.
