Another Eichler, always a yes. The homeowners came in with strong vision of their own, and the project is a mid-century modern oasis taking shape on a generous flat lot.
Flat lots are a gift, but composing distinct livable zones that flow together is its own art. The pool is already doing exactly what it was meant to do — anchoring the back yard as a sunny, central focal point. This phase puts the finishing softscape touches in place, the planting that pulls the whole composition together.
