This Mediterranean-inspired landscape design seamlessly blends timeless elegance with contemporary outdoor living. Strategically curated tile accents for the fire feature, outdoor grill, and open-air shower create a dynamic yet tranquil haven while unifying the original 1930s bungalow with its newly added Casita. Climate-adapted Mediterranean and desert plantings frame the pergola and pool, providing year-round interest and harmonizing with the hardscape elements. Rooted in history, this Spanish Revival home—once the longtime residence of architect James Cioffi—now stands as a stunning fusion of past and present in the Tahquitz River Estates neighborhood.
