Shaded Refuge
AN EDIBLE GARDEN
This home is situated on a 10-acre open site. Plantings are consciously staid at the front, maintaining focus on the architecture. Moving around the house, enclosed terraces with an overhead canopy of trees create intimate spaces. Around these terraces, the plant palette becomes increasingly less reserved. Dazzling tropical textures mix with other traditional plants to create an exotic backdrop. The Neoclassical-inspired architecture is reflected in the Mediterranean influenced plant palate. The light-colored crushed stone paving and the uses of herbs in the garden are evocative of Provençal style.
