About Arcadian Landscape - San Diego Landscape & Design
Late on an April afternoon, the light over Mission Hills turns the color of honey and slides down the slope toward Old Town, catching the white tower of the Serra Museum on its hill in Presidio Park. Arcadia was the old poets' word for a countryside in easy balance, and Arcadian Landscape brings that word to San Diego as a landscape and design business. Here, design begins with what the city offers: canyon edges, hillside lots that tilt toward the bay, sun that shows up nearly every day of the year. A good plan lets a garden settle into those conditions instead of fighting them, so beds, lawn and paths look as if they had always belonged to the house. The result worth chasing is a yard that seems most at home at exactly this hour, when the shadows lengthen and the hillside glows.
