MEDITERRANEAN  STYLE

The Jones Residence was a complete design consisting of hardscape, planting, irrigation, and low voltage lighting. Starting from a blank slate, we added a patio for entertaining, a custom outdoor kitchen, a fountain, small lawn area for their dogs, water-conserving drip irrigation, and colorful mediterranean plantings for year round color impact!
