Studio Green

Celebrating the heritage of California gardens, this residence is a well-crafted contemporary interpretation of a classic Golden State landscape. Classical forms are adapted to the warm sunny climate emphasizing a pleasurable human scale. The centerpiece is a swimming pool with modern spillways, backed by a hillside of exotic and native plants, surrounded by richly colored paving. Around the property, other touches abound, such as thick wood treillage and a tiled fountain which reinforce the rich rusticity of the composition.
