The trendy Venice, California, offers many examples of contemporary architecture. This one is one of a kind.
Therefore, the all concept of this landscape design has been to look for harmony with the architecture, as well as please the owner garden expectations.
We came up with contemporary landscape lines wrapping old school garden values, and we like the contrast.

This project includes a vegetable garden, a lawn, an overall English garden flair, as well as a unique feature: a pleached European Sycomore tree in an orangerie Versailles planter. Don’t miss the picture.

We focussed on:

  • - creating contemporary bold lines for the structure of the garden space;
  • - bringing an English flair through the plant selection as much as possible in a California climate;
  • - implementing a vegetable garden that offers a design interest;
  • - taking advantage of the narrow space and challenge the implementation of many space features such as a terrace, a vegetable & a fruit garden, a small traditional piece of lawn, and the charming effects of the wellknown English garden type.

    • Implementation of project: cleaning job site from construction debris, grading, framing spaces, installing irrigation, selecting plants at nurseries, planting, installing light fixtures, installing and pleaching a tree to provide natural shade.
