Mill Valley Modern
Mill Valley, California
Tucked into the hillside, this modern garden offers a series of terraced outdoor experiences for family enjoyment. Complimenting the architecture and oriented toward sweeping views of San Francisco, each terrace provides a unique perspective of the property.
The front sloped deck, wrapped with the contemporary forms of Cape Rush plantings, provides a cozy sitting area with water views. Behind the house, the main floor opens into a series of outdoor rooms including a fire pit lounge, dining area and outdoor movie theater. Crisp concrete steps laced with colorful plantings connect to the sunny upper pool terrace for fun-filled afternoons with expansive views to the City beyond. What once was unusable steep terrain now provides many accessible opportunities for luxurious outdoor living.
