Located in Encinitas, CA. 'Mainhouse' is an interesting development of highly customizable estate homes. The idea is that each home-site will have a 'Mainhouse' and then an ancillary unit for family, office, pool-house, in-law suite, etc. Past clients purchased a home and brought FWLI in to renovate the frontyard landscape. We created a series of manageable vegetable boxes set between a flagstone patio and a gently sloping orchard filled with grapes, apples, plums and other assorted espaliered fruit trees. completed 2015

A 28 year old spa and redwood deck were falling apart in this garden in Encinitas. The homeowners had already removed a decaying wood arbor and additional deck underneath a towering Podocarpus tree. Varying heights around the existing tree was creating a water-issue against the house. Boulders had been used for several decades to shore up the soil from against the stucco siding. Unfortunately the stucco had severe damage and needed repairs. Dozens of granite cobblestones were hidden in the old garden. The cobbles came from C Street in downtown San Diego, circa 1850.  The resulting garden has a Neo-Asian feel incorporating a glass tile fountain and reflecting pool, a new overhead structure with UV filtering shade cloth that protects but doesn’t overpower the space, and a synthetic turf area. The Podocarpus tree was thinned out aggressively to allow more sun to penetrate down to a new raised garden bed with Sago palms, various varieties of Ophiopogon (Mondo grass), and ‘Yellow Wave’ Phormiums. The cobbles were cleaned and repurposed to create a path from the side-yard to the backyard much to the surprise and delight of the Antique-loving owners.  While the backyard was under construction, we were retained to redesign the front yard. A new entryway and retaining walls invite guests to the front door. A custom rock fountain was constructed on-site to add sound and movement to the new front porch planting area. A Chinese Flame tree was craned in to provide shade over a ‘lawn’ of Sedges and Fescues (Carex albula, Carex testacea, Festuca mairei) ground junipers and Blue Fescue. The three small Black Pines (Pinus thunbergii) in the garden receive bi-annual pruning from a traditional Bonsai artist. One of the trees, upon further inspection, turned out to be a very rare Red Pine.

FWL was tasked with enhancing a Farmhouse in Cardiff. We added a Spa, Bocce Court, grass area, modern Grill Island and new landscaping to create usable spaces. Existing elements remained, including pavers leading to the front door, fencing and certain trees and shrubs.

In a new development called Pacific Highlands Ranch we were asked to create a modern garden with strong Persian influences. Persian gardens are some of the oldest in the world. While I’ve never been to Iran, I have been to Morrocco and to multiple gardens in Spain and France and Italy. The gardens of Spain have a huge Moorish influence. I referenced photos from my trips to places like Le Jardin Marjorelle, and Alhambra to inform the design. The couple wanted a sophisticated take on a Persian garden. We used Arto concrete tiles and beautiful blue tiles to echo this style. The garden is very formulaic and structured. We used Citrus, and several other flowering Mediterranean plants to complete the look.

In the twisting winding streets of old Del Mar live some of the largest Torrey Pines in Southern California. Some of these trees are over 100 years old. They are huge, with enormous girth (up to 20’ circumference) and towering limbs. When I first pulled up to Rimini St. I saw the existing house and thought, “oh no, a Torrey.” In my defense, they are a hot-button topic. Some people adore them and make every effort to preserve them, others secretly poison their neighbor’s tree to improve their view (no joke). They are beautiful, but like most beautiful things… they are high-maintenance. Our lovely clients wanted to preserve the tree - thankfully. We conceived of a series of steps, volumes, elevation changes. A small journey on the way up to the Orange front entrance. Everything was softened and ‘feminized’ with Atlas fescue and rosemary. The ‘after photos’ are still my favorite of any project. Design Team: Garrett Prange & Ryan Prange, FWL Construction: FWL Photos: Brett Hilton
