Easy to grow, Santa Cruz Island Buckwheat (Eriogonum arborescens) makes a great native substitute wherever you might use a Tuscan Rosemary. It's leaves are similar and it's blooms are large, spectacular and range from a delicate to hot pink. Like many native "island" plants, it loves the beach but will also thrive inland.

My clients and I collaborated on the design, and I build the entire space with the assistance of my team: Cedar fence, cedar deck, brick and bluestone patio. watch a time lapse video of this project and others at http://coirewilliams.com/landscaping-video-gallery

This custom backsplash was selected as a subtle nod to the coastal fishing heritage behind the Blue Marlin Beach House. The softly scaled, fish-inspired tile introduces texture, movement, and depth while bringing in rich blue-green tones reminiscent of the ocean. Its glossy, handcrafted finish reflects light throughout the kitchen, creating a layered effect that shifts throughout the day. Equal parts playful and refined, the backsplash became one of the defining details of the renovation—adding personality and storytelling while grounding the space in its coastal surroundings.
