Encinitas Modern Farmhouse

This project was designed to create an indoor and outdoor usable space for family entertainment on a large one-acre property.

We created a unique and eclectic style for this landscape architecture in San Diego. The client wanted privacy, as well as a comfortable space for their sons and grandchildren to play. Around the perimeter, there are Gabion cage walls with straight edges inside industrial style cages. In the interior, the stones in the cage walls were rounded for a softer feel.

There is an industrial, raw look to the property with a commercial architectural style. The varying materials blend together to create a natural and modern contemporary feel. Flowing grasses, 80-year old olive trees, a swimming pool, and fire/water features all support the farm style beach house architecture.

Contemporary materials like Ipe boards and stainless steel add a unique contrast in this property. We used the Ipe wood because it is one of the harder woods on the market, does not require a lot of maintenance, and is resistant to termites. It has a longevity superior to other types of woods.

From a koi pond to a water/fire feature, this property uses multiple different materials to create an elegant yet classic style perfectly fit for a farmhouse near the beach in Encinitas.
