Santa Ynez Estate

Santa Ynez, California

PB&Co designed the landscape for a new home designed by Berkeley-based Fernau and Hartman on a remote twenty-acre hilltop site. Since the home’s design consisted of a series of architectural volumes ascending up a steep slope, PB&Co’s primary goal was to contain the native gardens close to the house with a circumambulatory path that marks the transition to twenty acres of California oak grassland. PB&Co’s design frames the architecture in the landscape, bringing together the surrounding native landscape, the open and joyful house, and the newly planted native materials. A primary challenge was to work with the changing grades to be able to create cultivated spaces and a spacious front garden, while a second challenge was to design an environmentally sensitive quarter-mile driveway that climbs 1000 feet. Finally, the design addresses an enclosure to keep the clients’ dogs on the property. The end result is a private retreat that exudes positive energy and a sense of well-being.
