The site is shaped with sculptural earthwork and structural planting. The home is sited at a fold between plateaus in former pastureland. The landscape path follows the forest's edge in gentle curves between the existing and new forest. One lawn overlooks St. Mary's Church and the forested ridgeline follows a view to the Kumisi Reservoir. The home opens to a pool and garden terrace with a shade structure. Surrounding the pool is meadow terrace with a cherry trees and near the forest edge shaded garden with a fire pit.
The landscape is planted with forest patches of local species to define spaces and orchard species to provide points of interest and color. The range of plant and tree species highlights seasonal textures, atmosphere, and shadow. Unlike neighboring properties dominated by high block retaining walls, here the earthwork is fitted to the landscape with careful contouring.
