1.	HOME OF SYLVIA AND JERRY GAFFNEY, 407 SANDY HOOK DR. This coastal home on the Bay of St. Louis is designed to integrate the outdoor view as an extension of the interior of the house. Fifteen foot ceilings, white-washed floors and white monochromatic walls create a feeling of openness within this three bedroom home. Of interest are curved walls and planter, built in computer center and a bathroom fireplace within a large dressing area. Entrance to the raised home includes an atrium-like foyer and staircase to the upstairs living area. A deck from the great room leads to a boardwalk out to the pier. A winding limestone road through the wooded gardens leads to this unique home.
2.	“LIEBENWALD” GARDENS (FOREST OF LOVE) OF THYLA PERREAND ROGERS AND HER DAUGHTER ALLYSON KELLER, 100 HAVANA BLVD. A wheelchair accessible paved walk leads you through the trellised and bowered rose gardens designed in the shape of an Etruscan urn. Moss covered oaks shelter the camellias, azaleas, and fountains.
