CALIFORNIA LIVING

THE STORY
Landscape design. This is what we do. Creating and controlling nature. Taming her to our tastes or rather to our clients taste and proclivities. We like to plant California natives, the beautiful, wild and sometimes ill-behaved children of our sun drenched state. Mix in a few equally drought tolerant Aussie rebel banksia, maybe a couple of African protea, stir and serve.
​
We get emotional about plants. Tropical foliage creating a lost in paradise wall of breathing deep greens as you do laps in the pool. Silvery gray braheaclara.
Perfect Agave vilmoriniana.
​
If your garden harbors a fugitive from the past, lets keep it, make it feel welcome like a weird aunt. A solitary Italian cypress or a clinging to life rose hedge. Abandoned luxury a client called it, our penchant for layering old and neglected with fresh and punky.
​
Not to say we don't execute brilliantly modern yards with clean and crisp concrete, perfect pools, green lawns and clipped boxwood. Because we do. You will just have to convince us not to use meadow grass instead of turf.
