Urban Retreat Over Structure

A private terraced garden in San Francisco works with the existing topography to create a beautiful backdrop for family living and lounging. One would never know that the entire rear yard is built over an existing structure. The peaceful garden combines dark-hued textural basalt with smooth porcelain tile in hues of light gray and white. A Japanese maple anchors the corner within a powder-coated metal planter. Expansive views of the city and Bay ground the garden firmly in place.
