Residential landscape

  [ABOUT PROJECT] The project is located in Huangpu District, Guangzhou. Guangzhou is close to the South China Sea and has a maritime subtropical monsoon climate, characterised by warmth and rain, abundant heat and light, long summers and short frost periods. The abundance of rainfall throughout the year at the same time as water and heat is conducive to the growth of plants, forming a unique Lingnan 'Flower City' culture of evergreen flowers throughout the seasons.   The area around the base is well equipped with recreational, educational, medical and recreational facilities. The rivers and waterways in the area are well-developed, forming a unique cultural feature of the southern Lingnan water village. Surrounded by mountain... もっと見る

In the old days, Shanyindao was a stage-paved road. "The clouds are full of valleys, the moon shines in the long sky, ponds and streams are filled with water, floating clouds emerge from the mountain ...... The mountains and rivers reflect each other as you travel up Shanyindao." It has since become a long-awaited dream, a cultural icon of the south of the Yangtze River. The Shanyindao is no longer all that it once was, but the landscape and ambience of the site is still vaguely recognisable. To the north of the project site lies a grove of Metasequoia trees, spreading far out and blending in with the surrounding natural landscape. The landscape design extracts the natural landscape mark of the "Shanyindao", continues the modern folding d... もっと見る

This sculptural garden overlooking the San Francisco Bay reflects the vision of passionate art collectors whose personal artistic vision includes the idea of the landscape being experienced and enhanced through play and exploration. As a result, their whimsical five-acre garden incorporates distinct spaces that weave together architecture and landscape, providing places for reflection, play, and discovery.   At the entrance, a folding deck projects from the house, merging the building with a landscape of magnolias, grasses, and ferns. It also frames an existing stepping-stone installation by artist Topher Delaney, which spells out a Christopher Marlowe love poem in Braille.   The deck’s warping planes create a threshold... もっと見る

Perched at the edge of Tank Hill in San Francisco, California, this garden is an exploration of prospect and refuge—both nestling into and perching above the dramatic topography it calls home. In San Francisco, project size is limited by the high cost of living and the city’s topography. This Tank Hill site was embedded in a hillside with a steep, wooded backyard, offering limited outdoor options for its young family. To increase inhabitable space and maximize natural light, Surfacedesign carved into the hillside to create an intimate backyard garden inspired by the client’s affinity for rock-climbing and sculpture. The architectural planes of the retaining walls that structure the garden are explorations of the essence of... もっと見る

Anaha — “reflection of light” in the Hawaiian language — was designed to capture and reflect the light of the Pacific Ocean as well as the dramatic and ever-changing sky in Honolulu. Set within the Ward Village development, this multi-family residential project is informed by native Hawaiian plants and traditions, paying homage to the natural beauty and history of Honolulu. Anaha is oriented with its long axis perpendicular to the shoreline to preserve sight lines from mauka (mountains in Hawaiian) to makai (sea). At the ground floor, subtle differences in stone finish — from bush-hammered to honed Cremino stone paving — reveal a wave pattern. This paving is mirrored and repeated across the multiple leve... もっと見る

Located on a vegetative gradient in Northern California, this three-acre property is in the Silicon Valley community of Woodside.  The property owners commissioned Surfacedesign to merge the residential structures—designed by architecture firm Olson Kundig—and the surrounding landscape into a single, flowing, integrated entity.  The philosophical design approach prioritized blurring the sight lines of the parcel’s varying elevations and “borrowing” vistas of the adjacent Santa Cruz mountains.  This vision was realized by innovatively creating four distinct planting areas: olive orchard, house entrance (succulents), water-wise perennial meadow, and California native meadow transition edge.  ... もっと見る

Set within one of the oldest Zinfandel vineyards in California, the St. Helena residence floats above the surrounding vines, extending the landscape into the house and pulling life out into the garden.  An olive tree lined gravel driveway frames the entrance, culminating in the oak-lined property edge, where an existing heritage oak anchors the property.  This oak orients the site, marking the central axis of the house, pool and—through the vineyard—the barn.  Salvaged ancient olive trees are integrated into the barn landscape, tying into the reclaimed wood of the barn siding and framing the entrances to the building.  Exuberant perennial plantings frame the trees and provide seasonal interest—Nepeta fl... もっと見る
