Rebmann Residence Berkeley, CA Huettl-Thuilot Associates,  Stefan Thuilot-Principal Designer This design capitalizes on views to San Francisco and a sunny western exposure to create a small but inviting garden from an underused space. A steel arbor with concrete columns frames views while softening the scale of the house from the street. Stepped retaining walls, arbor columns and recurring plant material provide a lively repetition along the front sidewalk. A custom water feature and bench act as a focal point and anchor the bluestone terrace, inviting visitors in.
