Boxleaf rehabilitated a barren hillside into a biodiverse ecosystem, providing pollinator and bird habitats, fruit trees, and bountiful seasonal color.
Analysis of the site’s topography and atmospheric conditions directed the preservation of native topsoil and minimized impact to natural drainage patterns.
Gently curving gravel pathways usher the family through an orchard shaped by regenerative practices, where fruit trees are interplanted with seasonal cover crops and pollinator species to support soil health and groundwater recharge.
Restorative elements, include a custom family pool, cold plunge, hot tub, and meditation deck.
A focused materials palette and site-sensitive practices keep the hardscape light-on-the land. Thermally modified Ash wood decking is a renewable resource, constructed with architectural joints to maintain the site’s permeability and natural drainage patterns.
Unfettered and zen, this is a place to connect with family, breathe deeply and reconnect with nature.
