Inspiration for a full sun landscaping in Portland.

We worked in additional boulders to make the large boulder less of a singular feature.
This is an example of a rustic landscaping in Portland.

This was one of the planters I recently created during a workshop I led at the fabulous Joy Creek Nursery. Photo by Susan Varga - thank you, Susan! :)

The starting point for this design was the exterior color of the house. Year round interest, and low maintenance were two other client requests. The photos were taken when the garden was 3 years old. Photos by Anna Kullgren, Optic Verve

This adorable beach cottage is in the heart of the village of La Jolla in San Diego. The goals were to brighten up the space and be the perfect beach get-away for the client whose permanent residence is in Arizona. Some of the ways we achieved the goals was to place an extra high custom board and batten in the great room and by refinishing the kitchen cabinets (which were in excellent shape) white. We created interest through extreme proportions and contrast. Though there are a lot of white elements, they are all offset by a smaller portion of very dark elements. We also played with texture and pattern through wallpaper, natural reclaimed wood elements and rugs. This was all kept in balance by using a simplified color palate minimal layering. I am so grateful for this client as they were extremely trusting and open to ideas.
