What has meaning in our lives today? What part does Magic play in our exchange with the world around us? We believe that our gardens are where we live out the parts of our lives that have no edges, no time lines, and no structure. Our gardens are where we feel free to be children again searching out wonder, mystery, and delight. To see a blossom, to hear the sound of water as it dances or trickles, to breath in a scent that could never be made by man. To share, to laugh, to eat, with friends and family, late into the night, to watch as the light gently shifts from white to black, this is where the meaning of life exists, where magic plays like a child in the shadows compelling us to find it everywhere.
Our owner was raised in Los Angeles during a different time. As a boy, he rode with his father’s delivery men to the homes and gardens of what passes as royalty in their country, the movie stars, studio bosses, directors, and king makers of Hollywood. He saw the fantasy gardens of the greats where no expense was spared in creating a sense of drama out of nothing for the select few who did the same for us up on the silver screen.
He grew up and he traveled studying the great gardens of England, Italy, France, and Japan. He studied first Design and then Landscape Architecture at U.C.L.A., and all the while he built gardens. Gardens for himself and for others, gardens that solved problems and gardens that just did what gardens do so easily, create beauty.
Most of the time, our gardens were done with an eye to save money so we learned inexpensive solutions, a concept that we carry into the gardens we create today. We recycle what we can in every garden we create: concrete, lumber, existing plants, structures, anything that can be used again. Our gardens are for now, our gardens are for today, our gardens are water conscious where they need to be and our gardens are for people who don’t have the time or the money to spend a fortune keeping them up. But, our gardens are other things too, they are timeless, they are compelling, and they are places where memories are made.
