Working with Mindful Construction, Inc. on this project to reimagine an expansive front + back yard. Goal is to create a modern coastal feel with designated zones for poolside lounging, dining, relaxation, barbecuing and entertaining.

Softscape plays an important role in bringing the space back to life. Below you’ll see some before photos of the property + 3D renderings (All images via Mindful Construction, Inc.)

Proposed plant material highlights: Olive trees along the front fence lines, King Palms as focal points near the pool, Artemisia and Acacia cognata to bring softness and movement, Agaves as sculptural focal points (always), and Tradescantia pallida ‘Purple Heart’ for vibrant color amidst the surrounding greenery.

Stay tuned for updates on the transformation of this space…
