We collaborated with progressive landscape architects Terremoto on an entertaining pergola including an outdoor kitchen and dining area overlooking the pool and mountain views beyond. We worked closely with them site-wide to capitalize on all possible indoor-outdoor connections. 

We selected outdoor furnishings that had elemental geometry and a sculptural quality.  We worked with some of my favorite furniture fabricators to customize pieces for this special site: Croft House, James Perse, DWR and Sutherland. For upholstery throughout we chose a shade close to black with a lot of texture to mask wear and hold up to the elements. We had all the furniture frames powder coated black to complement the beautiful long-span pergola structure.
