Already partially enclosed by an ipe fence and concrete wall, our client had a vision of an outdoor courtyard for entertaining on warm summer evenings since the space would be shaded by the house in the afternoon. He imagined the space with a water feature, lighting and paving surrounded by plants. With our marching orders in place, we drew up a schematic plan quickly and met to review two options for the space. These options quickly coalesced and combined into a single vision for the space. A thick, 60” tall concrete wall would enclose the opening to the street – creating privacy and security, and making a bold statement. We knew the gate had to be interesting enough to stand up to the large concrete walls on either side, so we designed and had custom fabricated by Dennis Schleder (www.dennisschleder.com) a beautiful, visually dynamic metal gate. Other touches include drought tolerant planting, bluestone paving with pebble accents, crushed granite paving, LED accent lighting, and outdoor furniture. Both existing trees were retained and are thriving with their new soil. Photography by: http://www.coreenschmidt.com/

Lavender, along with gravel, basalt and other native plantings add to the beautiful cool color palette, enhancing the architectural design while providing for a drought-tolerant and low-maintenance front yard.

With a limited budget, we were able to transform and update this front garden with a new modern pathway, a small patio, and a variety of low-water and low-maintenance plants. The black mulch completes this modern landscape design transformation. By the Springtime the plants will fill in nicely, and provide a variety of heights, colors and textures. © Eileen Kelly, Dig Your Garden Landscape Design

We took some pictures of this project before it was finished and then never had time to come back after it was mulched and detailed out. Still we liked the hardscape layout, walls and the way we leveled the yard and expanded the driveway and so we decided to share it anyways.

This garden boasts 4 beautiful custom redwood raised beds with copper bands to prevent snails from attacking the edibles. The boxes are in full sun which is ideal for growing vegetables and herbs

Designed for a Cliff May "Rancho" home, this project resulted comfortable outdoor spaces for relaxation and entertaining. New walls and fencing, softened with lush planting, create a private atmosphere. And a casual, meadow-style garden filled with California native plants echoes the home's open, airy feeling.
