A contemporary garden for a modern Kessler Park home. A new Ipe deck and steps lead to the entry through layered grasses and steel-edged beds. A raised Corten steel planter spills with Mexican feather grass and sedum, and agave sits in dark slate mulch, keeping the planting spare and sculptural against the home’s clean lines. The pool is the center of the garden, with five scuppers pouring from a Lueders limestone water wall. Beside it are an outdoor kitchen, a lounge around a fire table, and an outdoor shower. A tall stand of existing bamboo wraps the garden in green and gives it complete privacy, and string lights overhead carry it into the evening.
