Featured Garden: Novato Landscape Design & Installation

Details Landscape Art was called to renovate this Novato residential backyard on a hillside that sloped in two directions back down toward the house. In addition, the doors from the family room and from the kitchen out to the garden were at different elevations. No problem. A split level Connecticut Bluestone patio was designed with several sweeping curved steps that accommodated both the elevation changes and the hillsides. French drains were installed and tied into the downspouts to carry the excess water away from the house and out to the street.

A large three tiered redwood arbor was built spanning the upper patio providing much needed shade to this full sun area. The hillside was planted with a tapestry of interesting ornamental grasses, colorful foliage and ground cover surrounding a large 'October Glory' maple.
