Sophisticated Mid City Residence

The stylish interiors of this home weren’t reflected in the outside spaces. A short stucco wall with electric gate was built in the front yard to create a degree of privacy and curb appeal. A striking urn became the focal point in a formal geometric arrangement with pavers set in a random pattern in decomposed granite.In the back, a generously sized deck and pergola with a decorative screen create shade and privacy while asymmetrical steps add a little playfulness. A constrained color palette of black, white and gray is sophisticated but the colorful drought-tolerant plant palette softens the look. A sleek fire pit creates another tranquil destination in the backyard.
