Bartlett receives generous donation from Duvall Design.
Enjoying the beautiful gardens and back patio at Bartlett Woods just got much more exciting. A giant “shade structure,” as designer/owner Charles Duvall calls the freestanding gift to our community, was installed on August 6th, and already residents, staff and visitors alike are gushing over this most welcome addition to our campus. The spectacular purple/blue/green color scheme marries perfectly with our flower gardens, and provides much appreciated shade from the strong August sun. Now, the patio furniture can be enjoyed easily, under cover of the majestic structure, called an “Osprey” by the designer. While gentle breezes flow underneath, or slight drizzle dampens the ground, we will still be able to sit outside comfortably. The surprise gift arrived just in time for us to celebrate BW’s 26th “birthday” on August 10th.
From all of us at Bartlett Woods, thank you very much Charles Duvall!
