A closer look at the front yard layout for the State Residence in Phoenix, AZ.
This space was designed to balance lush play areas with a sculpted desert aesthetic — integrating native trees, ornamental grasses, flowering accents, and sculptural cacti.

The soft lawn area adds comfort and functionality, while layered textures and views create a sense of depth and calm from every angle.

Front yard design details for the State Residence — a complete remodel in Phoenix, AZ.
We focused on blending soft desert textures, native plants, and sculptural forms to create a low-maintenance, welcoming entry.
The mix of cacti, blooming accents, layered groundcover, and stone finishes brings the architecture and landscape together beautifully.

More to come as this project takes shape! 🌵🏡
