Xeriscaping is extremely popular, especially in Southern California. With rising water costs, many homeowners have turned to xeriscaping to lower their utility bills and reduce their carbon footprint. Xeriscaping entails the creative use of hardscape and native and succulant plants to create a beautiful, low-maintenance, drought-tolerant landscape design.

Gutter protection can help reduce the amount of debris that collects inside your gutters, which means fewer clogs and less frequent gutter cleaning throughout the year.
Every home is different, so we provide free on-site gutter assessments to recommend the gutter protection option that best fits your roof, surrounding trees, and maintenance goals.

Xeriscaping is the practice of designing landscapes to reduce or eliminate the need for irrigation. This means xeriscaped landscapes need little or no water beyond what the natural climate provides. Thinking about Xeriscape? Here is an idea to bring your dream to life!

OVERVIEW
Set into a mature Boston area neighborhood, this sophisticated 2900SF home offers efficient use of space, expression through form, and myriad of green features.
MULTI-GENERATIONAL LIVING
Designed to accommodate three family generations, paired living spaces on the first and second levels are architecturally expressed on the facade by window systems that wrap the front corners of the house. Included are two kitchens, two living areas, an office for two, and two master suites.
CURB APPEAL
The home includes both modern form and materials, using durable cedar and through-colored fiber cement siding, permeable parking with an electric charging station, and an acrylic overhang to shelter foot traffic from rain.
FEATURE STAIR
An open stair with resin treads and glass rails winds from the basement to the third floor, channeling natural light through all the home’s levels.
LEVEL ONE
The first floor kitchen opens to the living and dining space, offering a grand piano and wall of south facing glass. A master suite and private ‘home office for two’ complete the level.
LEVEL TWO
The second floor includes another open concept living, dining, and kitchen space, with kitchen sink views over the green roof. A full bath, bedroom and reading nook are perfect for the children.
LEVEL THREE
The third floor provides the second master suite, with separate sink and wardrobe area, plus a private roofdeck.
ENERGY
The super insulated home features air-tight construction, continuous exterior insulation, and triple-glazed windows. The walls and basement feature foam-free cavity & exterior insulation. On the rooftop, a solar electric system helps offset energy consumption.
WATER
Cisterns capture stormwater and connect to a drip irrigation system. Inside the home, consumption is limited with high efficiency fixtures and appliances.

Another cabinet with retractable doors houses a bake center. The mixer and blender can remain easily accessable but don't crowd the countertops of the main kitchen space. Note the rollout shelving below. A spice pullout is also housed in the base cabinetry right under the cookbooks. Photography by Chrissy Racho.

This project has many different features. We designed custom, wood-free overhead garage doors to match the home's exterior features. The doors were installed using a high-lift operating system, which makes room for the customized car lift. We used a LiftMaster Jackshaft opener as the operator for these high-lifted overhead garage doors.
This makes it easy and convenient to park more cars inside your existing garage, maximize space and reduce clutter.
The project was custom-built and installed by Cedar Park Overhead Doors, which has been serving the greater Austin, TX area for more than 30 years.

Beside the refrigerator, we tucked in some open shelves to provide a coffee station for easy access during busy mornings.

This contemporary master bedroom is eye-catching with the organic woven wood shades. The natural colors paired with the blues give this space a relaxing ambience. The shades are from our line of blackout shades or also known as blackout woven wood shades. They have a dual shade. This is important because you can operate it with the blackout behind or not.
Blackout window treatments have a variety of benefits than just blocking natural light, which make them a wise choice in any home. At Abda, we have a huge selection of blackout window treatments that block most natural light from entering your window, keeping bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms as dark as you like. With a variety of customizable options, blackout window treatments are available as insulating cellular shades, stylish roller shades and fashionable fabric curtains. Each of these window treatments can be personalized with color and control options perfectly suited to your room and style.
Benefits of Blackout:
1. Block the light. Some treatments can block up to 98% of the light. A blackout honeycomb shade layered with blackout curtains creates the ultimate darkness. Layering window treatments are also a wise choice because it adds visual interest and softens the space.
2. Block the noise. Blackout window treatments will also help reduce the noise coming from outside.
3. Save Energy. Blackout curtains can trap heat in during the winter and keep light and heat out during the summer. We have shades that can reduce unwanted solar heat through windows by up to 80%. And in the winter, can reduce heat loss through windows by up to 45%.

Bathroom Universal Design considerations:
* The master shower was designed with a curb-less/barrier-free entry
* Grab bars were positioned in both bathrooms to reduce the likelihood of falls
* Master shower has an extra long hand held shower head hose to easily reach a shower bench or chair
* Shampoo niches were placed for easier access while standing or sitting in the shower

These door give you the ability the imitate wood doors without the maintenance and upkeep. Don't be fooled the cost of these doors can match or exceed wood, but the bonus is the exposure is not an issue, insulation value is best in industry and the weight is greatly reduced from wood. To me this is the way of the future and should be strongly considered over the wood products if possible.

RediRoot Plastic Air-Pruning Containers feature a slatted design that distinguishes it from traditional solid wall containers. This design provides plant material with superior aeration and drainage while reducing circling roots.
Air root pruning is a process where a plant's roots are pruned as they grow rather than when they are transplanted. Basically, when a root tip comes in contact with the air it is pruned, sending a signal to the plant to produce more lateral or fibrous roots.
RediRoot’s design features raised feet allowing for 360-degree air-pruning helping you get the most from your plants and trees. RediRoot has a variety of additional benefits including:
Reduces and often eliminates circling roots
Airflow allows growing medium to dry evenly reducing wet spots
Increases yield
Produces a dense, fibrous root structure
Reduces transplant shock
Made from recycled materials
BPA-free and UV resistant
