Project highlights: In the spirit of Mondrian’s iconic grid, strong linear retaining walls negotiate the steep slope of the front garden, organizing the site into a sequence of planted terraces. A layered planting strategy introduces trees that mediate between curb and roofline. A direct stone path establishes a clear connection from the street to the front door, while branching stepping-stone paths extend the grid outward to the driveway and side gardens. In the rear garden, spaces unfold across varied levels. Plantings soften the geometry, weaving natural textures through the ordered framework. A floating deck extends the sunroom seamlessly outdoors. A raised water runnel provides a tranquil soundscape. Paired water boxes act as reflecting planes, mirroring the landscape grid. An arbor establishes a vertical counterpoint and canopy for the terrace.
