California Casual
Thoughtful planning created a multitude of functional spaces for relaxed outdoor living at this Palo Alto home. For evening entertaining, a fire pit surrounded by stone seat walls hosts gatherings of any size. To reduce the owner’s maintenance burden, the home’s front lawn was converted to a stunning mix of native and Mediterranean plants. Beneath a native Valley Oak, an infiltration basin collects runoff from the home’s downspouts and allows it to percolate back to groundwater.
