Location: Tiburon, CA

The Tiburon Residence, completed while working for Pedersen Associates, utilizes a Mediterranean-inspired planting palette paired with the warm tones of locally sourced exposed aggregate and travertine paving to create a timeless formality. The entry walk, flanked by mature Olive trees, opens onto a private garden with a hand carved French limestone fountain. Poolside kitchen, fireplace and dining afford privacy and sweeping bay views with San Francisco in the distance. Lawn panel and portable fire pits allow for versatility. Mike led the concept design through construction document, then oversaw the construction of the entire garden.
