Nature's Elements Landscaping Best Landscape Design

The City of San Diego Sustainable Landscape Design and Maintenance Contest

1st place award winner

2011-2012 Nature's Elements was entered into a landscape contest by the homeowner for the City of San Diego. We took 1st place. We  created this landscape 4 years ago and it still holds up.   In this landscape we focused on the homes architectural style.  We also paid close attention to the homeowners interior design details.  Keeping all this in mind we extended their living space to the outdoors, while maintaining an environment that would be eco-friendly and waterwise.  The colors and textures were also inspired by the home owners interior. This landscape uses microdrip irrigation, decomposed granite materials and  rock material for texture.  The large boulders are  made out of a concrete product.  The walls were just an added accent  to bring the home further out into the landscape.  The small stucco walls and columns with split fence railing keeps this landscape open and inviting.  The irrigation system is a combination of drip micro irrigation and sprayers.  The plants and stone pathways were designed to create energy and movement throughout the landscape.
