Riviera Renovation
This comprehensive renovation transforms a hillside property to embrace the expansive coastal landscape. The project’s core is a strategic regrading of the site, sculpting the terrain into gentle, accessible terraces cascading downhill. Native boulders, excavated on-site, are reused to create a natural and organic structure for the new topography. A new pool anchors the main terrace, creating a dramatic foreground to spectacular Pacific views. A minimalist landscape preserves the site’s mature oaks and frames the ocean panorama, creating a seamless transition from the home’s interior.
