Pasadena Residence Landscape 

This landscape modified an existing old Spanish cottage, solving a laundry list of existing problems, while improving the feel and appearance of this formerly shabby property.  Elements extend the architecture of the house into outdoor living spaces that enhance the site as a whole.  An entry placita now greets guests and provides a sunny seating area where coffee and the Sunday paper are taken on weekends.  The pool surround replaces a 20' high monster fence wall and provides shaded seating and entertaining space.  Curved Spanish tiled steps from the house to the pool deck replace a decaying concrete drainage channel that originally separated the pool from the house.
