After completing the kitchen remodel and opening up the home to the backyard, it was finally time to give the landscape the attention it deserved.

Inspired by Mediterranean gardens, this cohesive redesign was all about creating a deeper connection with nature and carving out quiet, grounding moments. Elongated yet irregular steps became the unifying element, weaving its way through both the front and back yards to tie the spaces together.

A 10-foot built-in wooden bench guides the path to the back terrace while offering a peaceful spot to pause and take in the sound of water. In the rear, a second, more private outdoor living area was created—perfect for slower mornings or evening hangs.

To link it all, we added a soft, garden passage from front to back, inviting a stroll through a fruit tree-lined path that feels a little like walking through a small park.

The front yard was also reimagined to elevate the porch as a place to connect with neighbors, while still keeping the beloved soccer field for the kids.
