Built by collectors of modern art in the 70’s, this residence is a testament to modern architecture with tilt-up concrete slabs, tall plate glass windows, and flat gravel roofs. The house, sited perfectly on the side of a cliff, maximizes the winter sun and dramatic mountain views to the west. The new restorative design uses plant material best representing a desert climate. Cacti and succulents, olives and palms constitute the majority of new plantings. Colorful plantings of bougainvillea and lantana, in combination with plants of a more textural quality, provide the accents to the garden.

The outdoor sculpture collection is sited for prominent viewing with dramatic uplighting to enhance the nighttime experience. The new granular pool finish and expanded terraces completes the garden restoration and blends the site gracefully into the surrounding desert landscape.
