Mountain Pool Chill

This landscape design transforms a barren side yard into a functional and beautiful space designed to house the client’s sculpture collection. The area is now graced with an exposed aggregate and tinted concrete grid paving pattern, interspersed with elegant Mexican river rock. The unique paving adds texture and visual interest, turning an overlooked area into a stylish retreat.

Surrounding the paved section are vibrant hydrangeas and graceful flowering cherry trees, adding a burst of color and a touch of nature's charm. These plantings create a welcoming atmosphere, making the side yard not just usable but also a delightful extension of the outdoor living space.
