Theater Garden

This urban chic-casual garden responds to the architectural style of the house. At the client’s request, we incorporated a broad range of elements and uses in a limited space: dining area, sitting area, pond, lawn, perennial garden, terrace for large gatherings and theater for outdoor concerts. In order to create a unified garden, despite a drop of 5 feet over a distance of 45 feet, we structured the garden in gradual stages (<24 inches) so as to not require guardrails. This becomes a graceful and intimate space that can also accommodate a group of spectators during the performances by our client, a musician.
