Mediterranean Residence | Paso Robles, CA

This Mediterranean residence makes outdoor living more comfortable. A soft plant palette frames the incredible views of the property, and the architectural succulents, grasses, and other low-growing plants maintain the sustainable, low-water-use design.

Some of the plants include: Yarrow (Achillea millefolium), Century Agave (Agave Americana), Variegated Century Agave (Agave americana ‘Variegata’), Whale’s Tongue Agave (Agave ovatifolia), Sunset Rockrose (Cistus ‘Sunset’), California Rush (Juncus patens), and Catmint (Nepeta x fassennii ‘Walker’s Low’).

Adelaida Winery

Adelaida Winery | Paso Robles, CA

Nestled in the west hills of Paso Robles, at one of the highest elevations in the region, sits Adelaida Vineyards and Winery. Upon first view, the stone veneer on the tasting room reflects its natural environment and exudes a feeling of warmth and comfort to its visitors. The surrounding landscape is no different. The native plant palette lends itself to the natural plant materials found on the surrounding hillsides while creating a variety of textures and offering seasonal profusions of color. From the seating areas, both on the patio and above on the deck, the native-inspired plants give a sense of being fully immersed in nature, while maintaining the tidiness of a well-designed landscape.

Paso Robles Horse Ranch

Paso Robles Horse Ranch | Paso Robles, CA

This landscape renovation focused on reducing the size of an existing lawn, providing a large patio space for entertaining, creating clearly defined pathways throughout the property, and adding drought tolerant planting to provide beauty and blend into the natural surroundings.

Colorful perennials and grasses were used to bridge the gap between the ornamental plantings and the views beyond. Decomposed granite walkways helped to reduce costs and keep the project within budget. An colored concrete patio with a mortared flagstone border clearly defined the primary entertainment patio and created visual appeal, while an integrated concrete seat wall with flagstone cap provided seating space.
