Low-Water Modern Front Yard
Above: Gardenista editor Michelle Slatalla admired the “bold color choices, turf-free front lawn, and unpruned silhouettes of shrubs” in Pine House Edible Gardens‘ Low-Water Modern Front Yard, saying that all the elements “make you forget this is a suburban street in Silicon Valley.”
On the Edge of the Continent

Room to Breathe in Brooklyn
