Modern Styling Walkway

This modern style walkway is designed to make the user feel more at home than a regular concrete path.

Custom Screen

A custom redwood screen covers the air conditioning equipment. In the foreground, new pavers are custom-cut to fit around fuex rocks.

Peaceful Garden with Modern Styling

Olive tree and Ice blue podocarpus compliment the subdued hues of concrete and stone in this modern inspired patio garden. Arbor Vitea (small today) will create a noteworthy contrast with its vibrant green foliage and solid form.

Meditation Area Moonring

The client requested a small meditation space. We settled on an urn fountain with a waterless basin. Low voltage lighting illuminates the space in the evening and the moonring will be covered in roses soon. A specimen manzanita is in the corner.

Concept Drawing

Hand-drawn and colored concept drawing for a client.

Weed Abatement

When your weeds need abating call Sonshine Landscaping.

Privacy Screen and Media Wall

A highly customized screen for pool equipment and air conditioner. It features outdeco panels and vertical slat styling. Each panel open and closes for great accessibility. And the shelves are wired to illuminate the bottles that are placed on them.

Concept Plan Hillside

Phase one of the design program consists of numerous design alternatives, usually hand-drawn, to keep ideas quick and loose. During design refinement we move closer to the desired landscape.

Custom Railing and Light Hanging

Client had a large pit in his yard about 6' deep. We managed to flatten a portion with tiered retaining walls, irrigate, amend and lay sod to create a useable space. We also added a screen to cover unsightly airconditioning units and installed custom railing and string lights to the patio.

Outdoor Kitchen and Pergola

Artificial turf, concrete pathway, mow curb, belgard retaining wall, pilasters, an outdoor kitchen with a cast-in-place countertop, and a weatherwood pergola.

Grading Irrigation and Sod

We love installing sod! It really is like rolling out a green carpet. There is no faster way to get a green lawn.

Concept Sketch Frontyard

A quick hand-drawn sketch to illustrate a retaining wall and new plantings in a front yard.

Meditation and turtle pond

This small space was designed for the client to have a safe space to bring her turtle out to while she did work around the yard.

Slope Mulching

Client had an overgrown slope covered in weeds. We removed all of it and amended the soil, fixed the irrigation then planted pacific blue juniper before mulching the entire slope.
