Happy Buddha Statue
Asian exterior home idea in Miami

Lagoon-side property in the Bel Marin Keys, Novato, CA. Entertaining and enjoying the views were a primary design goal for this project. The project includes a large camaru deck with built-in seating. The concrete steps and pavers lead down to the water's edge. I included a sunken patio on one side and a beautiful Buddha statue on the other, surrounded by succulents and other low-water, contemporary plantings. I also used Dymondia ground cover to create a natural pathways within the garden. This project was just completed. More photos will be included in Spring when the plantings fill in.

Pool - contemporary pool idea in Miami

Example of an urban light wood floor dining room design in Portland

A Pergola as an outdoor living room. Curtains add some privacy but mostly they just flutter beautifully in the breeze. Solar Chinese lanterns light up at night, Maya Lin Stones coffee table. Broken concrete circular walkway and patio.

This discerning client sought maximum use from an otherwise neglected side yard. Diagonal Trex decking is used here in the narrow side yard to give the appearance of greater width to the new deck / patio area. The new outdoor spaces include a dining space and a living space cleverly carved out and here a statue of Buddha is backed by naturalistic bamboo which adds to the Asian inspired / zen ambiance of the design of the deck.
