A family with five energetic kids and a rambling new bloodhound pooch needed a better connection to the outdoors in their terraced hillside home, overlooking the historic Mountain View Cemetery. The steep and disconnected terraces made life outdoors feel miles away. The clients expressed to us that when they thought about going outside, they often didn’t. Now, more functional stairs with generous pauses make a multi-story journey to the backyard easy to do every day. And their tall house and hillside are more integrated with playful twists, turns, and swings that invite the kids (and pup) out to play.

Pre fab rock walls created stepped zones for plantings and herb gardens, taking advantage of the steep slope in this area. The use of aggregates create a clean and maintenance free area that looks great and functions well. A cedar pergola was built over the large paver fire pit patio and large plantings create some cozy privacy.
