Project highlights: Formerly designed as interpretive play space, the lower terrace was transformed into a pool-scape bordered by lush plantings. The space’s organization was based on the design set forth in the original upper terrace work, done in an earlier phase of life and growth for this family. A new corten wall helps create an upper and lower plant bed, defining the spaces and softening the transition between the terraces. Extensions of the stone retaining walls around the perimeter help to further navigate the site’s grade change while also allowing planting screening to sit higher than the terrace, evoking a feeling of being surrounded by nature in the urban environment.
