Eichler in Marinwood - At the larger scale of the property existed a desire to soften and deepen the engagement between the house and the street frontage. As such, the landscaping palette consists of textures chosen for subtlety and granularity. Spaces are layered by way of planting, diaphanous fencing and lighting. The interior engages the front of the house by the insertion of a floor to ceiling glazing at the dining room. Jog-in path from street to house maintains a sense of privacy and sequential unveiling of interior/private spaces. This non-atrium model is invested with the best aspects of the iconic eichler configuration without compromise to the sense of order and orientation. photo: scott hargis

It was my pleasure working with the Nelson's to design their back yard into a park and prairie like setting. A small back yard, 2835 sq ft, appears to be much larger with walking paths that visit garden islands filled with xeric and native plants. The plants are small now but when they mature the landscape will be filled with color and textures that enhance the theme. Another wonderful install by my wonderful team at Showcase Landscape and Irrigation of Loveland, CO.

The first challenge was to retain a large weeping cypress tree located at the middle of the yard. The solution was to build a semi-circular stone wall around the tree which would provide a raised structure for the three sheer descent waterfalls and end up as the focal point of the yard.

The client wanted patio space for a chair so she could relax in the sun when the mood struck. The only spot in the yard with any sun is near the fence gate. A full-range New York Bluestone patio was added using 30” x 30” slabs. These slabs are dry-set so leveling was a challenge.

This compact space allows for a lot of outdoor living options, without feeling too cramped. The homeowners really wanted a pool and spa, but didn't believe their yard was big enough. Not only did they get both by incorporating a spool, they also have plenty of room for seating and dining, lush landscaping, and a lawn where their child and dogs can play! Photo by Craig O'Neal

Small spaces can be the best. This pool and spa separated with a sheet of acrylic gives this pool an uninterrupted look. The limestone wall acts as a backdrop for the garden urn creating a focal piece of art
