This entryway is by Kazuyuki Ishihara, a Japanese designer who lifts greenery, floral design, and gardens to works of art. In this particular design, we love the details like the entry gate, letter box with name above, and the little ledge/window for the potted plant...
Here's another design of Ishihara's. It's the Garden of Clouds, for which he was awarded a gold medal in the "city garden" category at the Chelsea Garden Show in 2007.
