This award-winning modern backyard uses a watershed approach to create a formalized version of the natural world. 2,000 sq. ft. of space includes a riparian creek, dry hill, edible zones, and a large trampoline! Water is made visible through artfully-made rain chains, a water wheel, and cisterns. Unique native species include Comarostaphylis diversifolia and Aristolochia californica. Design by Architect Isabelle Duvivier with assistance from Susanne Jett
