一名新业主在波士顿郊区的一个1.6英亩土地上装修了一个郊区的房屋，并要求我们设计一个风景，将建筑物编织成其现场。 房子的位置，山顶，陡峭的车道入口和后院网球场都不能改变，所以该项目成了一项研究，如何一系列有限制的设计决定可以大大改变场地的经验。 对铺路面，种植和分级的简单调整导致了一个郁郁葱葱，广阔的景观，超越了结构限制，重新定义了这座翻新建筑的背景。

A new owner renovated a suburban spec house on a 1.6-acre site on the outskirts of Boston and asked us to design a landscape to knit the building into its site. The locations of the house, at the crest of a hill, the steep driveway entry, and the backyard tennis court could not change, so the project became a study in how a series of restrained design decisions could dramatically alter the experience of place. Simple adjustments to the paved surfaces, plantings, and grading resulted in a lush, expansive landscape that transcended the structural limitations to redefine the context for this renovated building.
