Carmel Modern on the Lagoon

The garden is as bold as the modern architecture, a colorful complement to the textured stone and smooth concrete of the structure. Plantings extend the view across the variegated native grasses of the Carmel Lagoon and out to sea or on to the foothills carpeted in green or California gold, with the seasons. Residents move comfortably between indoor and outdoor living to enjoy an interior water feature designed by Archie Held, complimented by a curved reflecting pool or admire the coastal landscape from seating on the stone patio or the comfort of a heated-seat bench before a fire pit.
