这个小型的现代花园满足了该区域要求隐私和可用的户外空间的简单需求。这个现代化房屋位于一个已建、分布紧密的20世纪20年代街区内。该花园位于2个多层传统房屋之间，将居民的室内外使用功能隔离开，不会产生侵入感。

这个小型的现代花园满足了该区域要求隐私和可用的户外空间的简单需求。这个现代化房屋位于一个已建、分布紧密的20世纪20年代街区内。该花园位于2个多层传统房屋之间，将居民的室内外使用功能隔离开，不会产生侵入感。为了达到这一目标，Hocker Design Group事务所在该空间的一边种植高大的竹子，并在竹子前面建造了一面混凝土墙，设置悬臂式的ipé 木长凳，可供人们休息。朝向房屋的街道一边通过种植本土草本植物和地被植物将景色转变成自然景观。这个过渡景观替换了社区标准和静态的前庭草坪。

This small contemporary garden healed-back a site that had simple program requirements of privacy and useable outdoor space. The contemporary home is situated in an established and dense 1920’s neighborhood. The garden is wedged between two multi-story traditional homes and required seclusion for the residents use of the interior and exterior spaces without intrusive views from above or the side. A tall planting of bamboo helps achieve this along one side of the space, and an architectural concrete wall with a cantilevered ipé wood bench front this serving as anchors within the space. The street side approach to the home features a continually evolving view into nature through the use of native grasses and groundcovers. This transitional landscape replaces the neighborhood standard and visually static front lawn.
