Comment below if would you like to see more sketches, marketing with the paint or something different.

[@Clogo100v]

Marker sketches drawing looks good. However, there should be elevation changes and a water fountain pump😂 what about led h2o lighting?

[@Sirius-ly]

Love them all! Today's video was perfect!! Keep up the great work!

[@Sirius-ly]

Love them all! Today's video was perfect!! Keep up the great work!

[@beachseeker634]

I am a visual person, so seeing the sketch is a tremendous help. More sketches with color please.

[@Sunshine-111]

More sketches

[@elizabethbeyer466]

Laura and Aaron are two of my favorite people. I NEVER miss any of their content. It’s the first thing I watch before I get out of bed in the morning. She inspires my day. Now I will watch for your content as well.

[@rebeccawolf3196]

Honestly, I could not even imagine it from the description or walking it. That drawing is everything!

[@kimberlyheibel8759]

I cannot wait for the addition to be added on to the pond. Garden Answer fans have been watching every change as it's been happening. So exciting!!!

[@pamelavalente3731]

Another vote for the color drawings here. Really puts everything in perspective. This is so exciting...can hardly wait to see it all come to fruition. 💚😊💚

[@ingridwagner9541]

I love the drawings Brian. Makes it easier to visualise what it will look like 😊

[@cynthiag3065]

I like both the painted outline and the drawing. The drawing made it come to life. Thank you for sharing. I can’t wait for this project.😊

[@SenterStuff61]

CanNOT wait to see this dream come to fruition! Thanks, Brian and Laura and Aaron for sharing the whole process with us!

[@SeaBreeze2247]

The drawing shows a water wonderland. Well done! I look forward to watching this become a reality. I have my morning coffee watching Garden Answer and really enjoyed seeing the pond construction last year.

[@janerobinson6469]

Hi there, Jane from Melbourne Australia here, After watching the installation of an enormous swimming pond made on Laura's property (Im a long time Garden Answer follower) I was inspired to look up Aquascape Australia. I was amazed to find a landscaper who installed your aquascape products in the next town to me!!! I had him come round to discuss design posibilities. He turned a totally unused corner of my garden into a beautiful feature with a waterfall and small pond . This has been such a joy to the kids in the family and in the evening the sound of the waterfalls are so relaxing. Thank you for this my garden is my pride and joy and now I'm retired I have many many hours of pleasure thanks to a video watched in Oregan.

[@TEAMAquascape]

That’s so awesome. Who was the contractor?

[@janerobinson6469]

Someone called Ben Hutchinson landscapes. Absolute joy to have working in your garden, His team is so friendly and very efficient. Good knowledge for plant choices for the pond area. They also have a stall at the Garden Show here in Melbourene and have done some of the water features at a Garden centre called Garden world in Melbourne. Any one wanting a contractor for water features I can not recomend them emough.

[@sidneykoepp3655]

Brian, you do awesome work. Thank you for creating the drawing for us visual people. I loved listening to Laura describe your vision and see the excitement on her face. GA has such a huge following that a successful project there will make your business explode. Not everyone can afford a dream steam & pond. But we can work on our own little piece of paradise.

[@patriciamathis7042]

I think it's helpful to see the design both ways. You get a different perspective from each.

[@krisd870]

I’ve gone back to college to be a landscape architect after being an interior designer for 25 years. I loved seeing how you did the drawing and how everybody’s techniques are a little bit the same and a little bit different. Thank you for sharing.

[@carolpope1145]

Can’t wait to see the build it will be amazing. Then with Laura magic touch it will be fantastic.

[@yorkie75]

In the UK we use barley straw, in net bags, floated in the pond to prevent string algae growth. It might be a solution until the wetland filter starts working properly

[@TEAMAquascape]

We will use that as well to help clear up the water! The IonGen will help with the string algae for sure.

[@gertrudette]

My favorite part of the process was watching you draw it on the paper.

[@denisemelachrinos9657]

I'm a great visualizer, so, walking through is enough for me - HOWEVER - I ALSO LOVE looking at the drawings afterwards! Can't wait to see the Dream Stream as a WIP and then Finished Project - watching the pond install last year was a favorite, the teams were incredible, and the camaraderie a beautiful thing to get to witness! Can't wait to see you all back at it again!

[@AdinaShoshanaSturman-os6tk]

So exciting! Hard to wait!!!

[@lisaelliott3864]

I like the drawing and thanks for sharing your process! Exciting!

[@paulinehillyard9754]

Looking forward to this new project, I hope it goes ahead it sounds amazing. However I 'm in the UK and we still haven't had any decent weather and hoping for summer to start!

[@phepoaboard6168]

Brian is the best Pond Designer that you could ever hope for! He has done 4-5 features for me. I am so excited to see what your dream stream looks like. Looking forward to seeing you in Chicago!

[@lilbeesting]

It's going to be STUNNING!!! Man, i wish i could afford you 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@lynnschantz9185]

We all wish we could afford something like this.

[@imateacher8382]

Brian, I hope you give your drawing to Laura when you are done. It is so beautiful and she might want to frame it.

[@TEAMAquascape]

Absolutely!

[@dellablair5854]

Absolutely love watching your thought process on projects !

[@stephaniewilliams9469]

Can’t wait to see the magic you create! You know your stuff! The algae situation will get worked out and will be just fine…..

[@camicri4263]

Looks great! Blessings!

[@marcybyrne4196]

It's going to be beautiful! The only water feature in my yard is a 2 tiered concrete fountain and I love it. The sound of moving water is good for the soul

[@sharidecterhirst1879]

Really enjoyed the pond processes last time. Looking fwd to the dream stream install. Arron and Laura have such beautiful gardens.

[@yvonneblache1515]

Wow wow Brian!!! You made Laura's explanation visible, can't wait also. We'll done.

[@mistygeller3193]

I love it!! I am graduated from college at a time when you still learned so much about design manually and maybe a 1/10 of it was done with a cad program (automotive/unigraphics) in my case. So I completely appreciate what the combination of all of those tactile visual aids offer! Just as everyone learns differently, everyone also sees things differently. Keep doing what you’re doing, it’s incredible! I cannot wait to see the garden/water feature tours!!

[@beverlyasleson3321]

Incredible job can’t wait to see it done in October

[@laurieh9388]

So exciting for this project. Thanks for sharing your process. Very interesting!

[@evalindell2757]

I would want both! Because when you have the map then to map it out you can have the vision and see and feel if it feels right!

[@brendapatterson7123]

I have faith that they will get the string algae under control! They knew it would be a 3 year process.

[@TEAMAquascape]

🙌 Getting there!

[@iartistdotme]

What fun to watch HOW and WHY and WHY NOT. We get a sneak peak at the growth of a dream into reality. THANKS for including us.

[@marywilson4243]

I think a fountain on a rock island would be perfect ❤

[@zenrockgardens]

This is sooo exciting! I was cracking up cause at about 10:15 Laura was getting showed up by the kids in the background doing hand stands. lol You asked... I liked both colored drawing and seeing the marking paint on the actual space.

[@jeannettebalcom6826]

I just LOVE what you & the dream team has done & cant wait to see all the wonderful additions. The whole process interests me but especially like the old school approach to drawing it out to scale. Then later that drawing could be a cherished gift when framed. ❤

[@Clogo100v]

Rock island overhang for fish shade.

[@jillr759]

You both did a fantastic job in laying out the vision! I’m all about the colored pencils to visualize the project. Excellent job!

[@sherrywhitaker3369]

So exciting! Dream team for sure❤️ I’m looking forward to the color drawing ✍️ Can’t wait!

[@Hei_hey]

A fun island feature could be a statue on a flat rock platform. You can also tie to electric to be lit up at night. Thx for sharing website to get scale...good reminder if looking to buy a property to build❤

[@denisefaust1290]

Love the drawing. It really helps me understand what’s going in. I hope they don’t change their minds.

[@lisafenno4563]

Color drawings are the best to visualize, for anyway Can't wait to see this design to all come together.

[@gafairbanks2434]

The most exciting part of this dream was seeing you, Brian, your bubbly enthusiasm, excitement & skills, jump into this " Dream Stream !" Majic doesn't happen unless you can experience a screw up now & then. Green slim is not so important at this stage of workmanship! Nature does very well at balancing in time. No worries. Just throw in some bottom feeders and poof, it shall become cleaner. ( small ones will get along with koi, about 8 aquarium cute ones pre quarantined.) They can live thru winter too snuggling up with big boys.

[@TEAMAquascape]

🙌🙌🙌

[@quiltingfanatic1459]

CANNOT WAIT until this install! Her planting around this dream stream will be EPIC!

[@julieyoung6387]

Would have liked to see more of the drawing. Like the way you do old school drawing. Looks great.

[@MarileeCorey-sn2hd]

It is going be hard having to wait for all this to begin. It looks like it will be absolutely wonderful.♥️

Teamscape’s guy is so talented

[@karenwaters7200]

That looks amazing! Love the design feature.

[@kfowler193]

OH MY GOSH!!! This is going to be FABULOUS!!! Watched when you put the pond in and can't wait to watch the Dream Stream to go in!

[@staceyallard2692]

I am an avid viewer for several years of GA & I can remember when you all put in the pond less waterfall. I know how much it took for Laura to allow an actual pond to be built on her property because she was so worried it wouldn’t look natural. I was soooo excited when she decided to finally do it. It turned out beautiful and it was fun to watch you guys build it. I also know that she is beyond herself with the algae problem she’s currently having and if y’all don’t help her get that under control, the Dream Stream might very be just that, a dream. Get on it AquaScapes!!!! I want to see this dream stream come to life!!!! I think it will be great! 😊♥️

[@sherriianiro747]

They even said it takes time and maybe if there wasn't fertilizer runoff would help so don't blame them -

[@TEAMAquascape]

🙌

[@staceyallard2692]

@@sherriianiro747 im not blaming anyone. No blaming going on. I was only saying she is stressing out about it & they (AS) know all the tricks of the trade so maybe there are things she/they can try that haven’t been tried yet. That is all, not blaming anyone. I’m excited to see the dream stream come to life. I’m certain the algae problem will get better. It’s 💯 love from here! 😊♥️

[@sherriianiro747]

@@staceyallard2692 I understand!! But AS cannot fix fertilizer runoff which seems to be part of the problem - if you watch her videos you can see how the yard slopes. Just because something is organic doesn't mean it can do no harm, and the labels say not to use near a water source - eventually will kill the fish too -

[@CrispeeCrisps15]

Bah! Can’t wait to see this one come to life. Love the drawing too!

I think the timetable is October of this year. Now that they own the back property, the bigger berms can be added. It’s going to be awesome.

[@lynnmacleod1879]

The layout is ideal!

[@wandygonzalez8078]

Love Laura. She is truly inspiring.

[@michelelee5339]

I'm an avid multi years watcher of Garden Answer, plus i have my own aquascape water feature. It's much smaller than on GA. From watching recent GA episodes, i feel Laura's frustration and trepidation about moving forward with the dream stream given the severe algae problem that keeps coming back. It's really difficult to manage when you've never had experience with a huge water feature like Laura & Aaron. I would love to see the dream stream go in as planned. However, i believe that the aquascape team needs to give Laura & Aaron more hands on support. That includes regular visits, , cleaning & testing water to bring this under control. It's no ones fault this happened, but it's not showing aquascape in the best light. Jmho I think we all care for Laura & Aaron and want the best going forward for all. Hopefully, Brian can sort this out quickly. I wish everyone success in this project. 😊

[@eileenchang2173]

I cannot begin to understand, how one could maintain water features this large unless one has full-time hands on and eyes on it. In my area my neighbour’s small pond is a tremendous amount of work and the water attracts raccoons and all kinds of other “urban wildlife”.

[@michelelee5339]

@eileenchang2173 you are definitely correct. And the aquascape team would be better to be all hands on to get this one back in order and provide Lsura with a personal contact to be on site to manage it. She has too much on the go and needs things to run on their own but that won't work with any water feature at all.

[@user-pp6xw9mm5z]

Wow, this new project is so exciting! Brian's team is going to ace it again!

[@chichitex1252]
