We removed two large pines and variety of mismatched plants that were choking the entrance to this charming cottage style home. We created a 'Sherwood Forest' palette to highlight the simple architecture. A previously hidden Eucalyptus tree is now the focal point of the courtyard. The side yard was a driveway that we opened up to create an outdoor waiting room for the new office space. Behind the office was grass that struggled with low light, we reconfigured that space by adding an orchid shed with two connected flagstone patios surrounded by shade plants that create the luscious, forest feeling our client was looking for.
