Spanish Revival Garden

A 1920's Spanish Revival garden was restored to it's former glory.
The house trim had been painted pink and the garden had been neglected for years. Stairways and patios needed fixing. Spanish tile accents where added to the walls of both the house and garden. The house was repainted in more traditional colors. Lighting was added and updated, but with fixtures that looked like original and added to the charm of the home. The fountain in the front courtyard had an ugly plastic liner and no long worked.  It  was replaced with a new octagonal fountain, with pots in the middle that rested on ceramic turtles.  The gentle sound of water blocked out noise from the street above.  The house number was painted on the front wall in a Santa Barbara style.  Overgrown plants were removed and replaced with new low water easy to maintain plantings. New patios with seating walls were added to the side garden with a mixture of old and new materials. Pots were added soften walls and add permanent color to the garden.
