Native wildflowers, grasses, and ferns create a colorful backdrop to the natural stone hardscapes, Corten steel retaining walls, and glass of this modern home. Permeable hardscapes and a 5,000 square foot rain garden system, complete with native matrix plantings and stone gabion baskets, protect a small stream and replenish the local aquifer. The geometric layout, custom water features, and stepping stone paths around the outdoor living space compliment the building's style.
