With careful planning and design, an unusable slope is now a dynamic and purposeful retreat. This transformative project introduces two welcoming patios, terraced gardens, and an expansive deck, complete with under-deck storage for multiple grills and gardening tools. The lower patio hosts an inviting gathering space while the upper patio is designed to hold a private hot tub, conveniently accessed from the newly expanded and modernized outdoor dining deck adjacent to the kitchen. The hillside retreat is accessed by a thoughtfully designed ledgestone staircase and is surrounded by planted terraces and lush gardens. There’s even a raised bed for convenient veggie gardening.

APLD 2021 Silver Award Winning Landscape Design. Galvanized troughs used for vegetables in the side yard. An expansive back yard landscape with several mature oak trees and a stunning Golden Locust tree has been transformed into a welcoming outdoor retreat. The renovations include a wraparound deck, an expansive travertine natural stone patio, stairways and pathways along with concrete retaining walls and column accents with dramatic planters. The pathways meander throughout the landscape... some with travertine stepping stones and gravel and those below the majestic oaks left natural with fallen leaves. Raised vegetable beds and fruit trees occupy some of the sunniest areas of the landscape. A variety of low-water and low-maintenance plants for both sunny and shady areas include several succulents, grasses, CA natives and other site-appropriate Mediterranean plants complimented by a variety of boulders. Dramatic white pots provide architectural accents, filled with succulents and citrus trees. Design, Photos, Drawings © Eileen Kelly, Dig Your Garden Landscape Design

Inspiration for a contemporary full sun hillside concrete paver water fountain landscape in San Francisco.

Seating and fire pits create intimate exterior patio spaces. Iron railings wrap the light wells providing access and natural light to a generous full basement from the rear yard area. Painted brick and shutters accent the modern adaptation of traditional detailing. Gutters, rain leaders and roof overhangs are refined and deliberate.

Outdoor Elements maximized the available space in this beautiful yard with a contemporary, rectangular pool complete with a large tanning deck and swim jet system. Mosaic glass-tile accents the spa and a shell stone deck and coping add to the contemporary feel. Behind the tanning deck, a large, up-lit, sheer-descent waterfall adds variety and elegance to the design. A lighted gazebo makes a comfortable seating area protected from the sun while a functional outdoor kitchen is nestled near the backdoor of the residence. Raised planters and screening trees add the right amount of greenery to the space.

Period rooms don't need to be painted with "traditional" colours. So forget whites and creams and try more distinctive colours. High ceilings can carry modern, bold colours. Accessories can really complete the look, copper vases set this room off beautifully. Wall colours Stepping Stone, available in Matt or Mid Sheen Breatheasy emulsion and Royal Ocean available in any finish from Crown Colourmix.
