CONTEMPORARY LANDSCAPE REMODEL WITH LOW-WATER PLANTS — KENTFIELD, CA

Picture

​Project Overview:
This contemporary front landscape was completely transformed with new retaining walls, finished with white stucco finish. Bluestone patio, pathways and stairways replace the failing brick walls and the out-dated patio to result in a beautiful and welcome front landscape design. The existing CA native shrubs and trees remained are complimented by site-appropriate low-water plants from a variety of Mediterranean regions. The plants were chosen for the resistance to browsing deer as well. The modern redwood horizontal fence offers a warm contrast to the hardscape materials and the gas fire table adds warmth for the  homeowners on cool evenings while lounging in the patio. Low voltage landscape lighting illuminates the pathway to the home's front entrance, and highlights areas of the patio along with  garden up lights for the trees.
Design Details:
  • Modern horizontal redwood fence
  • Bluestone patio and pathways
  • Contemporary retaining walls
  • Welcoming entrance with architectural plants
  • Accent boulders and pebbles for gravel around olive tree
  • ​Low-voltage lighting fixtures along the pathway, on the walls, patio and in the planting beds offer ambiance and safety.
  • Low-water, high-impact plants include Lomandra 'Breeze', Leucadendron, Grevillea, Euphorbia, Thamnochortus insignis reed and Fescue grasses along with succulents and CA natives.
  • Plants chosen for their deer-resistance
