BUCK CREEK

Set against the soft contours of the Alhambra hills, this landscape was designed to breathe—spacious, understated, and grounded in ease. 

With a focus on simplicity, the layout flows from the home into open space, allowing nature to do most of the talking. A wide play lawn at the center invites both family games and lazy afternoons with the dog, framed by clean lines and soft textures that blur the boundary between design and open land. The palette is restrained, but never spare—letting the light, the movement, and the quiet charm of the setting create the atmosphere.

Just steps from the home, a low-set fire pit offers warmth year-round, encouraging evenings that stretch a little longer under the stars. Every element of the landscape was chosen with intention—to feel effortless, to serve daily life, and to support a deeper connection with the outdoors. This is where the hills feel just a little closer and time melts away with the landscape design.
