Designed to harmonize with its Vancouver Island rainforest setting, this West Coast landscape provides a year-round haven for both the homeowners and local wildlife. Perimeter deer fencing creates a protected sanctuary featuring subtle transitions between distinct outdoor rooms. The front garden serves as an inviting gathering area, featuring raised Corten steel planters tailored for sunny morning coffee, vegetable harvesting, and effortless entertaining.
The plant selection prioritizes ecological health, incorporating native species, pollinator attractors, and long-blooming edibles. Over time, the open backyard is designed to evolve into a dense, layered rainforest understory, enhanced by native seed blends that allow the surrounding forest to naturally reclaim the landscape as it matures.
