Landscape and layout designs for the back yard of this San Francisco residence incorporate multiple raised planting beds, fruiting trees, a casual seating area, and a formal dining area punctuated by a bold succulent planter box. New redwood fencing, complimented by emerald moss-entwined older fencing, both embrace and claim these outdoor gathering spaces. Mondo grass creates an all year deep-green “lawn” area and further echoes an almost tropical plant selection so even in winter the yard boasts its Bay Area microclimate.
