Silicon Valley Retreat

This Portola Valley home blends perfectly into its surroundings with its red clay brick and drought-resistant foliage.

With an amazing overlook that frames the San Francisco Bay with natural rolling hills, we developed an outdoor extension of the house’s living space that carefully sustains these special views and manages the structural demands of a hillside project along the San Andreas Fault. In collaboration with Artistic Designs for Living, who developed the new pool house, we created a landscape that blends into the existing natural surroundings and provides our clients with places to play, work, relax, and entertain.
