Splashing water over carefully placed rocks and boulders creates a soothing and tranquil retreat in this Asian inspired garden. The pool and waterfalls take advantage of the existing hillside to create a dramatic experience. The ‘Tea House’ gazebo was engineered to cantilever over the edge of the pool to take advantage of a small garden space and create an outdoor living space by the cascading mountain stream.

Other portions of the hillside garden are inspired by a Japanese mountain pass where stone steps wind through narrow passages and fern filled glades. The contrast of spaces creates a rich diversity of experiences.
