DWY was commissioned to create serene garden spaces reflecting the modern architecture of this coastal residence while creating privacy from the street and open views to the pass. Silver Bismark palms were arranged in a grove to provide shade and shadow on the motor court while tall coconut palms were used to provide solar relief along the entry walks. A gated entrance reveals a courtyard and walkway that leads guests over a reflecting pool via floating steps to the pool deck beyond where a curved coconut palm articulates the pool space and tropical locale. Each space and every component within the pace works toward creating the space works toward creating the experience of the place.
