Landscape architect Miranda brooks didn't hesitate.

Go! And also to take 2 daughters, 4 horses, the family cats and dogs and a large group of ducks.

The reason is also simple:

Since it is a place where birds do not, there must be a beautiful color that is not stained with ordinary dust.

Speaking of Miranda's resume, it's a bit bullish.

Anna, the fashion demon who wears Prada, is notoriously picky in the industry.

But she said, "One of the greatest joys of my life was making Miranda a friend." ”

Miranda was a contributing editor for Vogue, and that day, Anna approached her and asked her to help design the garden.

Anna's home on Long Island, New York, has a 40-acre plot of land.

Through her hands, the land begins mysterious, with winding paths rolling and leading to a labyrinth of greenery.

It is a pleasant green, and the morning sun creeps into the softest grass cover.

"She gave me and my family, a very special world." Even Anna couldn't find fault with anything.

Her celebrity clients are countless.

AD, a well-known authoritative magazine in the industry, called her the preferred landscape architect in the design industry.

Twice named her in the AD100. (i.e. 100 design talents who have made outstanding contributions in the field of architecture and interior design)

But such an industry master, when he was a child, he did all the "bad things".

Miranda grew up on the farm, and when she was 9 years old, her family let her gardener at home every day after school because she was too active.

In her 10s, she secretly drove the family's car out, but crashed it and was fined for weeding every day.

It was also naughty, in her 10s, she planted fruit trees and watered flowers, and could repair grass on the top and canals at the bottom.

18 proficient in gardening, during the interview, she said of her childhood:

"All my fondest childhood memories are in the garden, that adventure and solitude surrounded by nature."

It's like a child of the land.

Later, she was admitted to the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom to study landscape architecture.

In 2010, she married her longtime architect boyfriend, Bastien Halard.

THE LOCATION IS IN THE GARDEN OF THE ARCHDEMON ANNA, AND VOGUE ALSO DEDICATED THIS WEDDING TO THE PAGE.

In the photo, they are smiling, their daughter is buried in the hem of her skirt, and she is full of spring colors to make her wedding dress.

They settled in Brooklyn, where Harald had remodeled the house.

There are horses, dogs and cats, and even in the city, there is the breath of life in the idyllic wilderness.

Miranda loves gardening, so they plant flowers and trees in their tiny backyard.

As if she had cast the magic of spring, she made the trees shade and branches climb the walls.

The two daughters grew up in this forest castle, and even though there were tall beasts outside, this small world was so vast.

These days are excellent, but Miranda doesn't like it.

As they intended, they wanted to make the house feel like a country country, even in the city.

But suddenly one day she felt that the city of New York was too noisy.

"Maybe I'm old enough to stand so much noise, and I feel like I'm stuck in Brooklyn."

So she left.

They saw the 40-room castle and the luxurious duplex villa, but ended up in front of a farmhouse.

It was a dairy farm from the 17th century.

Today, it is in ruins, with mountains of old silos and barbed wire everywhere.

Not far away, a mud pit the size of a swimming pool stands out.

The interior of the house cannot be described as bad.

Because of the dampness, the glass windows were full of mist, the attic was overhanging, and a small stream flowed under the floor.

Although terrifying, she is very calm.

"The situation is grim, I don't know how to turn it into a beautiful house, but you can for sure." She looked at Harald and said.

Harald did.

For months, without a kitchen, he made a fire outside the compound to cook.

One house collapsed, he dismantled it and rebuilt it, the tables and chairs were deliberately polished to a quaint one, the white walls produced flowers, and the stairs turned up.

Traditional craftsmanship mixed with modern soul.

A friend brought him an elm plank, which he cleverly laid out in the main living room as a floor.

The living room was a soft cream wind, the walls and beams were only painted with lime, and what he wanted to do was restore, not remake.

Handmade wooden furniture is evident throughout, the bathroom is filled with books, and an ancient panelling in the middle separates the bedroom.

The bedroom bed is hand-carved by Harald.

Next to it are slate tables from the flea market, which are not fancy but dotted with traces of flowers.

The kitchen is light, windows are opened on both sides, and I sit on the floral sofa for a long time, and the sky seems to be slowly swallowed into my stomach.

I thought the house was shocking enough, but Miranda's garden is not bad at all.

The theme of the front garden is red, surrounded by the original stone walls, and the garden is full of tulips, roses and crimson peonies...

Every time the flowers change, the flowers change with them, and Miranda restores the four seasons here.

The back garden is a pale yellow, with calamus, Burton iris and foxglove dancing in the wind, and sweet peas and wild roses outside the garden.

The slanting sun makes the garden warm, making people want to lie down in the garden and sleep.

The originally stinking mud pit was transformed into a magnificent vegetable garden by her.

Even on days when food is scarce, it's not hurried, just a corner of the vegetable garden is enough to last for several days.

The fields are vast, and they are the world where horses spread wilderness.

She planted more than 300 trees in the field, watered them in the moonlight until 2 o'clock, and prayed for the early arrival of a shade in front of the court.

In 2020, her best friend passed away, and in her memory, she carved out a circular pond.

The most beautiful thing is the snowy scenery here.

Curie is a southerner, and when he saw this snow falling, he really wanted to go out and build a big white and fat snowman.

Two daughters also moved here.

It's a long way to go to school, but there's plenty of fun to get home from vacation.

During the interview, Harald proudly told reporters:

"I believe the house is talkative and emotional, and at the beginning we messed around with this and it must have been angry.

"But now, it's definitely ashamed and feels so beautiful."
