This San Juan Capistrano home was transformed from a very water thirsty front garden to a low water use, mostly California native ecological oasis! The client needed a new driveway due to root damage, and new walkways to create cohesiveness. We chose to use pavers to complement and upgrade the home's aesthetic. We tied in the existing rain gutter system to a very large dry creek which will infiltrate thousands of gallons of rain water each year. A decomposed granite pathway leads to a wooden bridge over the creek. The homeowners can now relax on their patio and enjoy watching birds, butterflies, and other pollinators visit their lovely garden!

Plantings are new, and will gradually fill in the landscape around the pool. Water bubbles out between the three large boulders stacked along the shoreline. This client did not want a waterfall, but instead preferred a more muted effect.
