Project | 01 A Garden that Feels Like a Hug

We worked with Adele to create an artful and functional garden for her multi-generational household to gather and play. A blend of geometric shapes and a selection of California natives came together to create a timeless space that felt both inviting yet contained. Featured in Adele's garden were silver carpet (Dymondia margaretae), California fuchsia (Epilobium canum), seaside daisy (Erigeron glaucus 'Wayne Roderick'), and lomandra (L. longifolia 'Arctic frost'). (Installed Summer 2022)

We were lucky to work with Bill and his daughter Sabrina on their big DIY lawn-busting project!

Congrats to our awesome clients whose hard work transformed their back yard into this true oasis for people and critters alike! (Installed 2021)
