Around the World
Eclectic Landscape, San Francisco
Collaborating with noted Landscape Architect John Roberts, this garden was designed to represent the homeowners' many world travel experiences over the years. To achieve this, planning started at the garden patios, walls, and gathering areas. Four niches were created to celerbate a major world religion for a stunning journey through the cultural beauty of the world. After a Celtic stone inlay with Bluestone patio, steps take visitors into the tranquility of a Zen labyrinth before reaching Islamic and Buddhist niches. Moving further, the environment changes to a Greek Key focus before the final Hindu and Judeo-Christian niches that complete the one-of-a-kind design celebrating beauty from all corners of the globe.
