Landscape designers for this home took their cues from the house's midcentury modern architecture. Walkways, stairs and brick walls aim to be a peaceful, attractive transition through the gardens up to the front door.

Landscape designers softened this home's brick walls and concrete pavers by planting large ornamental grasses nearby. The path leads into a courtyard.

Raised steel garden beds are home to vegetables and a flower-cutting garden.

A raised lawn was created as a play space for the family's children. Its low board-formed concrete wall border allows water to drain away from the house.
