Maximized Escape
The landscape design for this residence blends naturally curated elements with modern tropical aesthetics. The main features include a large open lawn surrounded by lush, layered planting, complemented by boulders and accent plants to soften the hardscape areas. This layering creates a dynamic visual experience with varied heights and textures, visible from both the garden and the interior.

The use of a rock garden with loose pebbles and boulders adds textural contrast, while a green wall serves as the backdrop for the dining area, extending past the perimeter to create a vibrant focal point. Functional elements, such as a pebble-lined trench drain along the lanai and a pebble pathway, tie the different garden zones together. The design reflects a careful balance between natural beauty and purposeful living.
