Palo Alto Contemporary Retreat
20 PHOTOS
This new home was designed to make the most of the outdoors. We took every opportunity to create sustainable spaces for all interests whilst keeping in mind the environmental footprint. All plantings are irrigated by our Grey Water system, the pool is heated by passive solar and all roof and landscape water runoff has been kept onsite through the use of bio-retention fields. Modern lines, contemporary features and organic accents was the theme here.

Modern Belmont Entry Garden

We took a 1950 Ranch Style home with a failing wood deck stair entry and gave it a contemporary update. We embraced the elevation change and used it to introduce sand blasted color concrete stairs and landings to meander up to the front door. We have provided opportunity to enjoy the journey home and take in the abundant planting scheme which is primarily drought tolerant.

We removed 4000sq/ft of lawn and transformed a flat Hillsborough yard into a dynamic, lush, sustainable garden with a productive edible garden. The ordinary pool area was reinvented into a multi dimensional space with activity spaces for the whole family.
