This very small water feature blends into the natural, woodland environment of this small townhouse yard. Yet it provides so much ambiance and relaxation while the pleasant sound of the water drowns out the traffic noise nearby. The water recirculates and is stored underground thus keeping...

This 44' long water feature blends into the woodland setting of this large back yard by starting in the Redwood grove outside the client's bedroom deck, meandering by a fire pit sitting area, and ending in front of their dining patio. It has become the main feature of the yard as it can be heard...

This very hot Campbell home needed some cooling off so we added this tall, soothing-colored urn overflowing with water that can be seen from all points in the yard, even inside the glass doors in the family room. It is lit up at night. There is a swing under the shade-producing arbor to sit and...

This spiral of low-water Dymondia ground cover and gravel with a striking blue urn in the middle took the place of a reduced lawn in the original design. The clients can see the fountain lit up from inside their living room while it also catches the eyes of passers by and guests walking up the...

The cinder block retaining wall at the base of the hill was disguised in beautiful Carmel Gold flagstone. We used the elevation change to create a custom fountain coming right out of the wall. We picked colorful tiles as the backdrop to this rustic pot and the water recirculates from the gravel...

Both boulders were drilled so that water flows off of the taller boulder onto the lower one. The client wanted a small amount of water to collect in the concave area of the flat boulder to attract the birds. The water is stored below ground and recirculates when the timer clicks on. The client has...

An Italian-inspired wall fountain provides the soothing sound of water and classic elegance.

Three jets hidden in the raised wall provide hours of fun for the kids in the pool as well as beautiful water feature at night. They can be easily adjusted by the turning of a dial.

Every corner of this small yard has been strategically utilized including this secluded corner for the sunken hot tub. While soaking in the full-featured, energy-efficient hot tub, one has a lovely view of the pool with its glass tiles, blue-green colored plaster, and mosaic-tiled, plant-filled...

The hot tub is seamlessly sunk into a flagstone step & covered to keep the heat in. Besides the tremendous cost-savings, features such as smooth contoured seats, cup holders, jets especially for feet, neck or back, multi-colored lights and neck pillows helped make the decision to have a separate,...
