Small mediterranean white exterior home idea in San Diego

Contractor: CairnsCraft Remodeling Designer: Marie Cairns & Juli Renee Riebli Photographer: Patricia Bean This quaint deck was placed on the side of a 1950's Bungalow home in the heart of beautiful San Diego. An outdoor design that correlates the feeling of Zen with a traditional style is surrounded nicely by the comforts of home. Comfortable pastel pillows indulge themselves on the over-sized rattan furniture. Up-lit Fig and Mulberry trees emerge from the deck, giving a feeling of warmth and texture as they are dimly lit by well-placed LED lighting. When entering the patio, reclaimed wood is used for the steps and deck. Recessed stair lighting acts a safety precaution as well as creating ambiance as you enter the space. The patio is enclosed by cedar a wood trellis wall on all three sides. Night time Jasmine will eventually find itself covering the enclosed space. The patio is accessible by either a glass French door off the master bedroom or a single glass door off the home office. To end the day, a recessed hot tub with a surround sound system, LED lighting, and a soothing waterfall tops off the atmosphere and feel of the design.

A complete and eclectic rear garden renovation with a creative blend of formal and natural elements. Formal lawn panel and rose garden, craftsman style wood deck and trellis, homages to Goldsworthy and Stonehenge with large boulders and a large stone cairn, several water features, a Japanese Torii gate, rock walls and steps, vegetables and herbs in containers and a new parking area paved with permeable pavers that feed an underground storage area that in turns irrigates the garden. All this blends into a diverse but cohesive garden. Designed by Charles W Bowers, Built by Garden Gate Landscaping, Inc. © Garden Gate Landscaping, Inc./Charles W. Bowers
