Arctostaphylos columbiana (Hairy Manzanita) thrives in the dry slopes of this woodland garden. The unique bark provides year-round interest. The fruit is a good source of winter food for birds visiting your garden.

To ensure that the stairs ended (or began!) at just the right point at the edge of the patio, Archadeck of Central CT began building the stairs at the bottom and worked our way up. This is a reversal of the usual process, and it worked out just right. The new stairs meet the patio at a place called the "soldier course," which is the contrasting rim of brick around the patio edge. We installed Fortress LED lighting on the stair risers for safety after dark. Photos courtesy Archadeck of Central CT.

A 3,980 sqft Modern Retreat Merging Nature and Architecture Completed in 2025 in the tranquil hills of Bel Air, this 3,980 sqft residence redefines outdoor living through a seamless blend of modern architecture and natural beauty. Designed by Henne Creative, the project captures the essence of minimalist luxury, where clean lines meet atmospheric elegance. The infinity pool extends toward a lush backdrop, reflecting the dramatic hues of the California sunset. At dusk, the soft architectural lighting highlights the structure’s geometry, creating a calm yet striking silhouette. The pink flamingo float playfully anchors the space, adding a sense of warmth and personality to the design. Floor to ceiling glass panels erase the boundary between indoors and out, while the concrete patio equipped with sleek loungers and side tables offers a refined and relaxed ambiance for everyday retreat or intimate gatherings. Bel Air Serenity isn’t just a home it’s an experience. A sanctuary that celebrates light, openness, and the quiet luxury of nature-infused design.
