ABOVE: Garden terraces and modern parterre in the hills of Los Gatos overlook the Silicon Valley. The
"checkerboard" parterre design was created from the brilliant abstraction of a palm tree, and the three-tiered
rill fountain that cuts through the terraces acts as a creek for the homeowners' child to picnic nearby.

27 years old. At the time, he traveled to France frequently and was influenced by French formal and Provincial
styles as well as the gardens at Vaux Le Vicomte.
