Los Altos Hills French Chateau

Los Altos Hills, CA

Staying true to the French Provincial architectural style of this residence, we incorporated formal gardens, traditional fountains, multiple play areas, and a custom play structure into the landscape design. Authentic materials, including antique rod iron fencing, stonework, flagstone patios and pavers, along with a formal swimming pool design, amplify the grandeur of this property.

Contemporary Ranch

Hillsborough, CA

A modern landscape was designed to complement this contemporary home. The property is nestled in a neighborhood known for its 1950s ranch-style architecture. In this setting, the minimalist landscape design was cost effective, provided much needed privacy and security, and put a fresh, contemporary spin on a transitional home in a traditional enclave. We incorporated a swimming pool and spa, decorative gravel, stucco privacy walls, and steel fencing with the existing trees on this property.
