Se contacto para una renovación completa de la zona exterior de la vivienda. La idea planteada por el Estudio fue darle un aire más actual con un cierto aire nórdico, en el que la madera pasara a tener más protagonismo. Se planteo una renovación completa de todos los elementos internos de la zona (solados, revestimientos, mobiliario, plantaciones, iluminación, riego, decoración..) y a la vez que se saneaban, recuperaban y reforzaban todos los elementos estructurales del jardín. La jardinera de obra, se renovó por completo tanto en estructura como en plantaciones, basadas en suculentas de diversos tipos, que le otorgaran un aire minimalista. El mobiliario y la decoración se renovó por completo. Se establecieron dos zonas de reunión. Una más formal con sofás y mesas de apoyo para comidas o cenas para compartir y otra más tipo chill out, para descansar y leer con un aire más étnico.

Our client had already used Twisted Rock previously for a different project and we were blessed enough to have them utilize our services again!! They wanted another clean-looking, low maintenance yard that was functional with great curb appeal that would not take a bunch of time to maintain. We utilized natural rock, concrete edging, and aggregate as well as created a fire pit patio for cozy family nights under the stars....

Before + after of the front garden transformation for this single family home in Jacksonville, FL. This project included the design of a new entry way and porch that would complement the existing architecture of their home. Long linear concrete stepping pads were added to break up the long expanse of lawn and the bold architectural plantings add interest and mimic the homeowners mid century design aesthetic.

Tiered of the looking out at a shabby brown lawn in their front yard and unwilling to use the water to keep it green these homeowners decided to go for something different. The wife in this household worked from home and was motivated to have a better view from her home office. As an enthusiastic bird watcher, I wanted to give her a view that included happy birds fluttering about. The husband was annoyed by the fact that some of the neighbors allowed their dogs to use this corner lot a toilet without having the curtesy of cleaning up after them. My job was to create a low water landscape (also known as xeriscape) that attracted birds, bees and butterflies but kept the dogs off. We started with directing down spouts in to catch basins called infiltration swales. These swales capture water storing it in the soil where it can be accessed by plants months after the rains have stopped. Then we integrated primarily California native plants and succulents into the design. Special attention was payed to the water needs of the plants and the ideal growing conditions for each species so that the combination of earthworks and plant choice and placement this landscape can get by with zero supplemental irrigation after the period of establishment this landscape. By incorporating flowering California native plants, native birds and insects flocked to the site in a neighborhood otherwise dominated by lifeless landscapes. By surrounding the garden with decomposed granite and succulents we created a space that was unpleasant and unappealing for dogs to relive themselves while remaining appealing to more human sensibilities. Today this property sits on the corner in a suburban neighborhood of Goleta, California. Hopefully serving as inspiration to take out lawns and build beautiful gardens that work to integrate the man made landscape with the natural ecosystem in which it is built.

This photo was taken justs after completion of the landscaping. We renovated this desolate, weedy front yard by creating terraces with beatiful stone retaining walls. Then we added colorful, drought tolerant plants that grow so well in San Francisco's Mediterranean climate. We installed drip irrigation and concealed it with attractive ginger rock pebble mulch.

These are some of our design and build landscapes with sustainable, eco-friendly design practices in mind. Many of these were Cash for Grass rebate customers or Waterwise Conversion programs where money was awarded through local water districts and agencies.
