A calm, cohesive landscape designed to extend daily living outdoors. At 830 Mar Vista we choreographed arrival, connected courtyards and terraces, and brought a sense of ease to the coastal setting.

The design balances privacy and openness, framing long sightlines while keeping the experience grounded and livable. Stone, planting, and lighting are used with restraint so the architecture and landscape feel like one conversation.

Key moves:

• A composed entry sequence with layered planting that softens structure
• Courtyard circulation designed for flow and gathering
• Materials selected for texture, warmth, and longevity
• Planting palettes chosen for climate-appropriate color and form throughout the year
• Subtle lighting to extend use into evening without overpowering the night
