With a small front yard, a tiny backyard, and a narrow side yard, he knew he would have to make the most of every square inch of space. The side garden proved to be the most challenging.

His success relied on wise hardscape decisions, the careful placement of plants and focal points, and the inventive use of repetition to pull it all together.
