The owners wanted a 'hidden' kitchen garden. So we took the sunniest corner of the backyard and masked it with ornamental grasses. If you look hard enough, you can see a few Habañero Peppers still clinging to the plant. Photography by: Joe Hollowell

This bathroom had shredded wallpaper still clinging to the walls, a leaking tub with a cracking tile surround, and a dated linoleum floor and needed a complete overhaul. I fixed the walls, updated the floor, installed a one-piece tub and shower, built a custom cabinet over the toilet, and created a focal wall above the custom vanity with bead board, stained wood accents, and unique vanity shelves.

Homesteads are about function as much as beauty, and button bush delivers on both fronts. Its willingness to grow in wet areas makes it perfect for landscape spots that other plants avoid. Those damp corners aren’t wasted space when you plant button bush — they become intentional, lively parts of your yard. The shrub’s dense form also doubles as a natural screen or border. Planted in groups, button bush makes a soft edge against lawns, gardens, or pathways. Its rounded shape and textured blooms maintain structure without feeling overly formal. That’s especially nice in landscapes that lean toward natural design. But function doesn’t end there. In wetter areas, button bush helps reduce erosion and standing water. Its roots absorb moisture and give soil something to cling to, which makes it a practical choice in drainage swales or near water features. Pollinators and wildlife find value here too — that’s an added bonus that makes landscapes feel balanced and alive. If your homestead includes gardens, fields, or natural plantings, button bush fits right in. It holds space well, supports life, and brings seasonal interest without demanding constant care — qualities that make it a smart, functional choice.

The Portola Valley Residence and Pavilion is a composition of staggered and interlocking rectangular spaces that cling to the slope as it gradually wraps around the hillside. As the interior floor level slowly steps down, echoing the natural grade, it increases the floor-to-ceiling height, flooding the space with expanded views and abundant natural light. Carefully defined interior spaces with plaster and stone veneer walls offer a fitting backdrop for the owner's dramatic art collection. The home’s terraced roof design and careful selection of natural materials equally complement its human and natural environments.

In a stylistic departure from the main house, the 750 sf guest pavilion combines three small geometric elements to form a pleasant guest, entertainment space . . . and yard sculpture.
