Located in the Denver Highlands, this garden maximizes contemporary outdoor living on a small footprint. Custom steel arbors define the dining and lounge spaces, cantilevered sand exposed concrete terracing with ipe inlays allowed for linear lighting, an oxidized steel fire pit and floating stepping stones lend a sense of urban edge, and lush plantings provide interest throughout the year. In the front, an oxidized steel "boulder" playfully engages concrete stepping stones giving a hint to the garden beyond.
