LOS ALTOS RANCH STYLE GARDENS, 1999 to Present

We have been very fortunate to watch this garden design and landscape evolve over the past decade or so to what it is today. Starting with a massive remodel in 1999, we designed a new front driveway with pavers, cut a new bluestone back patio and entertainment space out of the back hillside, and decreased large amount of unusable space and water hungry lawn. Now, the creative, colorful low water plantings and gardens have come to maturity to make this high visibility home a showstopper. This landscape is a testament to the ever changing and evolving art of a Landscape, and the designer's creative vision over a span of time. Check back soon for updated photos!
