Although the terraced family house garden is relatively small, it can still be designed to offer much enjoyment. The family's wish was to bring the garden experience close to their home. The adjacent pergola is surrounded by flowers from all sides providing a pleasant seating area just outside the living room door. The ornamental grasses bending almost above the pool water level nearly imitate a swim in a natural lake. The raised beds allow a family to grow their own vegetables and a grass area offers physical enjoyment. A small garden shed connected to a semi-transparent fence formed a natural screening from the street. The house is encircled by decorative perennial beds naturally passing through the fence. The stepping stones in the beds offer pleasant access through the garden gate.
