This garden was designed to celebrate panoramic views of the San Gabriel mountains. Horizontal bands of slate tile from the interior of the mid-century home wrap around the house’s perimeter and extend to the rear pool area, inviting the family outdoors. With a pool framed by mature trees, a sunken seating area, fruit trees, and a modest lawn for a young family, the landscape provides a wide range of opportunities for play, entertaining and relaxation.

This is an example of a large southwestern full sun backyard stone landscaping in Dallas.

This newly constructed ‘farmhouse’ had an overgrown city landscape just begging to be cultivated. Today, two almond trees flank the parking strip, while plums, blueberries, raspberries, grapes, herbs and flowers overflow the courtyard garden. A split cedar fence is the perfect rustic backdrop, an inspiration that drove the client to cover every picket with an aluminum can! Raised beds built from dry-stack stone define and contain this urban farmstead, while drip irrigation and rainwater harvesting help keep the landscape watered in a low-impact way.

Solid Apollo LED. In this pool side landscaping installation, the owners wanted to bring vibrant outdoor lighting to several of their prized plants. The Cricket LED Landscaping Light with stake was chosen for its compact design and since the garden could be updated several times a year, the lights could be moved without exhaustive installation requirements. The Cricket is a low voltage waterproof light. The LED lights are connected using DuoWire Outdoor Waterproof Connectors to easily attach and separate the wiring for each Cricket. The entire installation is apart of multiple lighting areas and is controlled by the LEDWizard Smartphone and Tablet LED Controller.

A modern inspired, contemporary town house in Philadelphia's most historic neighborhood. This custom built luxurious home provides state of the art urban living on six levels with all the conveniences of suburban homes. Vertical staking allows for each floor to have its own function, feel, style and purpose, yet they all blend to create a rarely seen home. A six-level elevator makes movement easy throughout. With over 5,000 square feet of usable indoor space and over 1,200 square feet of usable exterior space, this is urban living at its best. Breathtaking 360 degree views from the roof deck with outdoor kitchen and plunge pool makes this home a 365 day a year oasis in the city. Photography by Jay Greene.
