When these clients called us in for a consultation, they had just finished the addition of a new family room to their San Mateo bungalow. The garden was old and worn, with a tired lawn and rotting deck off the master bedroom. Even worse, an overgrown Hawthorn right outside the addition doors blocked the garden view. The most unique aspect of the house was the modern art that the couple collected, and we all agreed that the garden should include a piece of sculpture. The photo above shows a view of the new garden through the doors of the addition, with the carved stone water feature as the focal point.   Design Director Chris Jacobson, GardenArt Group Landscape Architect Beverly Sarjeant Landscape Contractor Sam Gomez Landscapes Carved stone water feature Living Green Photography Chris Jacobson, GardenArt Group
