This wooded deck retreat features composite decking material by Fiberon, shown here in the Horizon line in 'Ipe'. The Ipe color reflects the beauty of natural and exotic hardwoods, complete with subtle streaking and varied wood grain patterns. Fiberon hidden fasteners were also used to create a polished, seamless deck surface.

Stepping stone take you from the potagier to the water feature and lounging patio. Lemon Thyme has been planted in between the steppingstones for softness on the feel and to create a green transition. Shade loving perennials and shrubs like Astilbe, Rhododendrons and Hosta have been planted for a difference in height and leaf texture. Flagstone is made from a local limestone at Ebel quarries. We can see the English style knot garden at the top left. New painted Cedar fences.

This front yard had to also act as a clients back yard. The existing back yard is a ravine, so there is little room to functionally use it. This created a design element to create a sense of space/privacy while also allowing the Mid Century Modern Architecture to shine through. (and keep the feel of a front yard) We used concrete walls to break up the rooms, and guide people into the front entrance. We added IPE details on the wall and planters to soften the concrete, and Ore Inc aluminum containers with a rust finish to frame the entrance. The Aspen trees break the horizontal plane and are lit up at night, further defining the front yard. All the trees are on color lights and have the ability to change at the click of a button for both holidays, and seasonal accents. The slate chip beds keep the bed lines clean and clearly define the planting ares versus the lawn areas. The walkway is one monolithic pour that mimics the look of large scale pavers, with the added function of smooth,set-in-place, concrete.

When mixing hard and soft elements in design it institutes a natural and informal aura. Large pieces of Bluestone Flagstone were woven from the top of the walkway down to the side yard gate and was stacked in tiers to form garden beds for cut flowers, as well as to build a foundation around the newly planted mature olive tree.
