Neo-Classical Residence Beverly Hills, California 1985:
In the mid nineteen eighties a series of newly planned residential communities were developed along the Mulholland Corridor. The sites located within these gated communities commanded sweeping views of the San Fernando Valley to the north and the Los Angeles Basin to the south. Abramson Teiger Architects was commissioned to design this new residence in the Neo-Classical Style which was very popular at that time. Glen Hampton garden designs was contracted to design the gardens. Landscape Designer Glen Hampton's design for this garden was influenced by the clean classic lines of Mr. Abramson’s architecture. This was achieved by creating spacious garden terraces made of limestone, which spread out into the garden from a simplistic rectangular swimming pool; keeping plant materials to a minimum in formal patterns dominated by vast lawns; and creating soft but effective low level lighting which enhanced rather than compete with the spectacular night views of the valley below. The result is
one of classic harmony between the architecture and the classic gardens design of this residence. ![]() ALL CONTENT on this Site Copyright Protected ALL IMAGES on this Site Copyright Protected or images found on this site... THANK YOU. Return to Garden Designs HOME PAGE
