A rocky, moss-covered hillside presented the opportunity to create terraced rooms for recreation, relaxation, and social gatherings. The natural setting informs a meditative quality that is further defined by a fire pit and Weeping Cutleaf Japanese Maples echoing the aquatic textures of the pool, fountain, and existing waterfall. Stonework and terraced plantings blend with rock outcrops, thereby blurring the line between built and natural interests.
