Project story

The design.

A pergola shades the outdoor kitchen, with paved areas opening toward the broad lawn. Stonework connects the kitchen to the garden, and lights follow the house and paths.

A circular fire-pit terrace sits at the lawn’s edge, with chairs facing the fire and mountains beyond. Elsewhere in the yard, a shade sail covers a play area. Curved paths pass through gravel and planted borders, connecting these spaces to the house.
