For the 10th year, the nation’s premier Showcase Home, the Pasadena Showcase House of Design has selected FormLA Landscaping to design and build an inspiring, architectural garden.

FormLA Landscaping’s Rain Cascade Garden is located at the heart of the property and surrounded by badminton and tennis courts, a sunlit pool – and the home.  A treat for the senses, the garden showcases innovative land sculpting, bio-swales, IdealMow® lawn alternatives, native flora and fauna, strategic lighting, built in seating, and a multitude of paths and perches.

This year, we are happy and grateful to have three FormLA Landscaping clients joining us as docents in the garden.  Jeanie Kay, Jean Cheng, and Nancy Feldman bring design savvy and a passion for sustainability – they are great resources for tour enthusiasts!

Santa Monica Workman’s Cottage and Garden Tour

Santa Monica Conservancy News. September 2013.  By Sherrill Kushner:  Historic places can range from the grand to the humble and all contribute to a city’s unique history if preserved. A humble yet creatively renovated Victorian cottage of the late 1890s was the site of a recent Conservancy tour August 18. The home and gardens of Hilda Weiss and Wayne Lindberg revealed how a 130-year-old structure can be expanded and updated into a comfortable space adapted to today’s living standards while incorporating its historical features.
