This garden is based on a series of outdoor rooms, linked by an axial, stepped walk. The walkway is bordered on both sides by symbolic representations of mass and void; the "void" of an empty lawn room, and the "mass" of a citrus orchard. The hedges that define the walk are formed from Prunus caroliniana. The owner was involved in modern art and served on the board of trustees for the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles.
