HILLSIDE GARDEN
Marin County 1995

A steep hillside in Mill Valley with clients that had two little boys and a love of the Japanese aesthetic. I created a three tiered garden. The top level was entered through a gate onto a redwood deck; wood steps lead to a flagstone landing with stone steps leading to the second level which is a grassy area for the boys. The third level is separated – the boys climb down a ladder to their play area and the adults use a stone pathway with steps to an organic vegetable garden.
