Clare Street

This modern home and its surrounding landscape celebrate color, texture, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Water, fire, and the movement of perennials and grasses define the theme for this garden. A striking drystone wall and bluestone flagstone entrance set the stage, leading to a corten steel water feature that introduces movement and reflection. Winding pea gravel paths guide visitors through a backyard oasis framed by bamboo for privacy, where vibrant plantings surround a corten steel and concrete water feature, a fire pit, and a productive garden. A green roof wraps around the master suite and rooftop patio, enhancing sustainability while softening the architecture. Designed for both tranquility and community, the space incorporates geometric water features, a steel fire table, and a custom book box and bench to encourage neighborhood connection. Drought-tolerant plantings ensure year-round visual interest, privacy, and a thriving habitat for wildlife.
