Hillbrook Drive, Portola Valley

A new home, on the site of the former family home, sits at the crest of a hill with distant views to the east and west. A composition of low maintenance surfaces creates a variety of spaces without over prescribing their use. Plantings were chosen to complement the native vegetation without eliminating the passage of deer and other wildlife through the site.
