Adapting to the Challenges

Another month rolls on by and we are navigate to a new normal and all of the challenges that come with life and the Corona Virus Pandemic.

At Landstory we are thankful for our clients and adapting to different procedures like doing Skype meetings or virtual meetings, but life does move on with these new challenges.
​
I feel a little disappointed for those families trying to celebrate Mother’s day in May as this was a really special time of the year for me.

I have been taking on new challenges in the kitchen again.  It seems so long ago that I was in Naples Italy when I ate the best pizza.  Naples was the birth place of pizza and what I remember was the simplicity of the pizza.  Now I have been trying to master the pizza dough for years, so with help from my American Test Kitchen cookbook, I took the leap of faith, made my own pizza dough using the special ‘00’ flour and embraced the simple topping style that I prefer.

Mastering a challenge comes with a great sense of satisfaction and achievement.  I often feel that when you design a client’s garden or outside space, but now I can add pizza to my list of accomplishments.  I can’t wait to have friends over to display my new culinary skills.

Maybe there is something to this self-isolation and having to adapt to the challenges that life throws at us.

    Articles on the design process is a journey - a story if you will - using the distinguishing qualities of the space; it's form and function, it's beauty and utility.
