Central to the design is the orchestration of space through symmetry, parterres, and focal points, creating a theatrical garden experience where every path and vista is carefully choreographed. Sculptural plantings, clipped hedges, and decorative paving set the stage, while water features and garden ornaments add layers of refinement.
Beyond its architectural beauty, the garden has been carefully planned with sustainable planting selections that honor the spirit of Baroque grandeur while ensuring year-round vibrancy in San Diego’s environment. This fusion of heritage and innovation results in a living work of art — a private sanctuary that reflects both cultural richness and modern luxury living.
