With a renovated boarding house as our backdrop, this landscape began as overgrown hedge-rows and a glut of undergrowth. Our design intended to open the space up allowing an opportunity for exploration and communal gatherings. From the patio steps, one can venture into a hidden terrace and enjoy a boulder seat by the firepit. Or one can wander barefoot down the rolling lawn into an activity area surrounded by native plants and trees. Each nook is interconnected to provide flow and continuity, allowing the homeowners a path to their desired destination no matter where their journey begins.
