The Walled Garden

Design Features
- Tall brick privacy wall with terraced planting and climbing ivy to soften the enclosure
- Mini plunge pool with a linear water feature built into the retaining wall
- Glass greenhouse structure for year-round growing
- Raised vegetable garden beds alongside a dedicated fire pit lounge area
- Arched, lantern-lit brick alcoves adding old-world Mediterranean character
Project Overview
This front yard design was built around a client request for complete privacy without sacrificing warmth, a tall enclosing wall that matched the home's brick architecture, but never felt confining or fortress-like. The result is a richly planted, terraced brick wall softened with climbing vines, ivy-covered archways, and layered flowering shrubs, giving the space a genuine Mediterranean courtyard feel rather than a walled-off yard. Inside, the design brings together a mini plunge pool with a linear water feature, a glass greenhouse, dedicated vegetable growing beds, and multiple seating areas, creating a private retreat that feels open and alive rather than enclosed.
