Coastal California Landscape

When this couple bought the house in 2017 we helped them create a backyard that better suited them rather than the previous owner…

Years later, they decided it was time to enhance the front yard. Before the redesign, the existing plants were an eclectic mix that did not have a theme and the hardscape did not match the house. This new design and installation had the goal to match the hardscape to the house, create a theme in the planting, use more mature planting material, and get rid of some of the rocks that the previous owner loved. This new design and installation was completed in 2022.
