TROPICAL PARADISE IN ALISO VIEJO
One of the most special sustainable outdoor design projects, and I have to tell you about it.
This family wanted a space where they could truly enjoy their property together, and the land's unique shape made it such a fun challenge. We ended up creating different little gathering spots (each one with its own vibe) but all connected in a cozy, natural flow. Think tropical plants, pops of color, and that instant vacation-like outdoor living experience.
We were super mindful about the details: every choice reflected sustainable design principles. All the plants were carefully selected to avoid attracting bees (since the owner has an allergy). We kept a big open stretch of grass for games, reimagined the old fountain into a calming water feature, and added my favorite detail: a fireplace design right in front of the kitchen, so family and friends can gather around the fire at the heart of the home.
It feels so rewarding to see this vision come together: warm, welcoming, and perfectly
