Coastal Cliffside
This residence garden embraces the natural topography of its coastal cliffside location in Panglao, Bohol. The garden is a vibrant blend of organic forms, combining modern elements with lush, wild plantings. Upon entry to the residence, visitors are greeted by a line of grand palm trees along the entry driveway, surrounded by mounded plantings and large boulders that add dimension to the landscape. A central atrium with feature trees serves as a focal point for the garden, with sculptures and potted plants adding visual interest to the key areas of the garden.

On the oceanside, the design features a terraced open lawn that slopes gently toward the sea, with staggered steps providing access to different levels. An infinity pool with a cascading water feature blends with the natural surroundings, offering panoramic views of the ocean. A floating bridge crosses over a natural swale, connecting various areas of the garden, while a pergola-covered seating area and a campfire provide spaces for relaxation and socialization. The combination of vibrant plantings, dynamic topography, and modern outdoor living spaces creates a coastal paradise for a scenic retreat.
