Vast Garden Landscape Design
With a View
The homeowners wanted a custom garden landscape design that would celebrate their passion for gardening while framing the property's breathtaking mountain views. Rather than a low-maintenance landscape, they envisioned a “play garden” filled with abundant plantings, seasonal color, and year-round interest—creating a landscape they could actively enjoy and cultivate throughout the seasons.
The challenges from existing conditions involved significant drainage issues and the complexity of irrigating over an acre of landscaped area. To solve these issues, bioswales and seasonal creeks with culvert overflow were installed. The irrigation system uses a 2-inch mainline with 24 zones. During construction, difficulties in piping irrigation lines were also encountered, as water is shared with a fire suppression system that cannot be shut down in Winter. This was resolved with isolation valves at all valve boxes, and the erosion at swale overflows was fixed with bentonite for soil stability.
