The homeowners desired a contemporary-style landscape design for their three children to enjoy now and in the future. The two elements they wanted included in their design were a swimming pool and an outdoor living space. We designed and installed a rectangular swimming pool, a square pergola with a louvered roof, and a rectangular-style outdoor gas fireplace with a natural granite veneer. For the pool patio, we selected quartzite for its interesting appearance and for its ability to stay cooler in full sun than other natural stone products. There were numerous large specimen trees on-site prior to our design. These were transplanted and utilized in the new planting design. Low-voltage LED landscape lighting was added for ambience in the evening.

This uber-modern backyard is totally secluded with high privacy fences and a shade structure across the back. Climbing vines along one side and a grove of bamboo on the other soften the hardscapes and stand in contrast to the pool's premium black pebble interior. (18 x 35, custom rectangular)

This 14,000 square foot Holmby Hills residence was an exciting opportunity to play with its classical footprint while adding in modern elements creating a customized home with a mixture of casual and formal spaces throughout.

This area was sorely underused before. We designed custom planters with travertine tile and redwood tops. New custom patio makes this area an entertaining space. Future plans for a corner arbor structure at a later date. Landscape Doctor
