Sculptural Garden Walls Designers: Susan Harrison and Joe Clark Fabricator: Joe Clark of Architectural Elements The walls of steel were specially designed by Susan Harrison of Private Gardens Design and Joe Clark of Architectural Elements. Susan's vision was to create a visual divider to define the back yard space. Susan and Joe defined the shape and scale of the sculptures. Joe built a scale model of the project to present to Susan's clients. They loved her concept so she hired Joe to engineer and facilitate the construction of the walls. The sculptures were craned into place and set into engineered concrete footings.
