Innovative Landscape Design for Country and City Dwellings

Posted: 18 Jan 2013 12:04 PM PST

With the unique talent of integrating the built structure with the natural environment, Rees Roberts + Partners bridges the divide between man and nature in both country and urban settings. The resulting landscape designs are as aesthetically pleasing as they are ecologically meaningful. We are so taken with their work; we previously covered their city landscaping projects in detail.

An outdoor living area filled with natural elements allows the owners of this urban dwelling to enjoy a respite from their hectic city life.

When open, the retractable glass walls of this modern minimalist home allow the homeowners to experience their indoor and outdoor worlds simultaneously.

The perfection of linear lines and geometric shapes used in this home's architecture plays off of the untamed, imperfect landscape creating a dramatic appeal.

The stark contrast between this refined, manicured lawn and the uncontained wildness of the surrounding woods shows the diverse possibilities when landscaping in a country setting.

When modern materials of glass, concrete and steel are prevalent in a home's architecture and interior, the addition of living greenery softens the hardness of these elements and blurs the lines between manmade structure and nature.
