Mayberry Townhomes 
​The Secret Garden

Secret Garden at Mayberry Townhomes 43rd & 805 on Mayberry St. San Diego
Community HousingWorks, Developer.
​
The garden features a modified maze, unique edible plants, and an art enhanced bench. On the other side of the curved wall a busy street buzzes with main street activity.
Abstracted plants fabricated in metal fill the window spaces like planets in a dream. They also provide lumbar support on the bench. Vibrant is an understatement for the color within the windows. ‘Electric Melon’ perhaps, which is only seen from a side angle. A flash when driving by the curved wall.
There is also a formal abstract piece outside of the community room, which has tempo and rhythm and reflects the same patina as the square blossoms from the garden. It is lively and playful yet serious. Like and old person saying something really funny to a teenager.
