 [BBC Gardeners' World Live 2024](https://gardensdb.com/shows/bbc-gardeners-world-live-2024) - Beautiful Borders

A Problem Shared is a Problem Halved
====================================

 Border

 This border design is a space for people to share their problems and woes, a space to unravel and talk, and to open up with their thoughts. Its a safe space surrounded by nature that they can sit and share a moment with nature and wildlife or talk to a friend to help with their own wellbeing. The Yin/Yang paving reflects the opposing forces and the user can sit at the side that reflects their feelings at that time. The cross over of the corten artwork is a bridge from the dark side to light side, the planting compliments this by having low deep colours crossing over to a taller lighter palette as the users mood is lifted. This border is split into two but provides a calming and welcoming area that can be used as one, with one goal in mind to talk and share your thoughts.
