The landscaping fades gently into the surrounding natural prairie. Stone steps lead from the yard into a newly planted dwarf apple orchard.

Inspiration for a large rustic partial sun hillside mulch formal garden.

This front yard had a lot of slope to be dealt with. New boulder walls meet up to the existing brick walls, offering a nice transition from the more rustic and forested elements of the landscaping to the more manicured outdoor living areas around the home

Three structures are located on a 6,500 sqft, sloped lot. The main house is squeezed between front setbacks, a drainage easements through the middle, an access easement to the north and a 30’ topography following height limit. The street level contains an office, a bedroom, an entry and a garage. The lower level contains indoor /outdoor living spaces separated by a glass wall. Sharing this glass wall is the master bedroom. The Studio 420 is located to the west of the drainage easement and contains the parts and tools needed to repair their grown up toys (a dune buggy, motor cycles, an antique sports car, and a three wheeled vehicle). The Studio 120 became the third structure. This structure is a utility room that blocks the neighbor’s views into their backyard and is as backdrop for outdoor dining. The home’s form is a reaction to being pinched between site constraints and the need to live an outdoor life while being indoors.

Lush planting compliment this modern landscape nestled over a lake. A new patio with turf around a fire feature is amazing for watching the sunset across the new, well thought out planting.

Celebrating Southern California's mild climate, this hill-top residence was enhanced with an a bubbling water feature, outdoor shower, custom fencing and a Mediterranean plant palette. The fence's design, with its slender vertical lines, draws the eye toward the site's lovely borrowed scenery. An outdoor shower, nestled into a corner of the yard, beckons the homeowners to bath in the open air. Photo by Martin Cox.
