A custom sunroom off of the living room provided indoor plant space and views of the water beyond. All new flagstone pathways were also added around the house.

The property included a detached commercial size greenhouse and garden shed with outdoor production garden beds.

Welcome to a new kind of front garden. One that can be used and enjoyed, one that welcomes critter, birds, bees and butterflies and people, one without the water sucking tyrant that is lawn. Welcome to peace.

This Hollywood Fairytail house had been lovingly restored, all but the garden! We demolished everything in the front garden and designed a new gracious porch with a checkerboard design in concrete tiles, new low water landscaping with drip irrigation and meandering paths of flagstone, a recirculating fountain and rain garden. Added fruit trees, native and climate appropriate plants and a walkable low water Ruschia area for kids and dogs.

Recirculating Water Feature, with auto fill - make life so easy - no mosquitos and no drying out! This was a great little design-build project for some great clients! We oversaw the construction of the shed, designed and built the pergola, deck, outdoor kitchen, water feature, flagstone patio, as well as installing the plants, irrigation and landscape lighting. So pretty at night!
