This is a view from the bridge of steps leading up to the older portion of the deck and a bonsai garden. The full view of the pergola can be seen above the steps. To the right of the steps is a partial wall and bamboo latticed window (shitaji mado).
The planning took advantage of the abundance of lush greenery: in the private pool, one swims amongst tree tops, which provide a beautiful natural screening to supplement the ceramic fritted glass partition which prevents overlooking between floors.
This level of the home is just above beach level. It has an enclosed elevator cab, a sauna room lined in cedar, a bathroom with a shower and washer and dryer, a entertainment center with bi-fold doors, a fully equipped exterior kitchen with an outdoor oven and dishwasher.

This home featured an entry walkway that went through the carport, no defined exterior living spaces and overgrown and disorganized plantings.
Using clues from the simple West Coast Japanese look of the home a simple Japanese style garden with new fencing and custom screen design ensured an instant feeling of privacy and relaxation.
A busy roadway intruded on the limited yard space.
The garden area was redefined with fencing. The river-like walkway moves the visitor through an odd number of vistas of simple features of rock and moss and strategically placed trees and plants – features critical to a true Japanese garden.
The single front driveway and yard was overrun by vegetation, roots and large gangly trees.
Stamped concrete, simple block walls and small garden beds provided much needed parking and created interest in the streetscape.
Large cedars with tall trunks and heavily topped umbrellas were removed to provide light and to allow the construction of an outdoor living space that effectively double the living area.
Strategically placed walking stones, minimalist plantings and low maintenance yard eliminated the need for heavy watering while providing an oasis for its visitors.
