Highland Street
Houston, Texas
A sun-driven kitchen garden extension that weaves removable raised beds, stepping-stone circulation, and a shaded trellis into a family-centered side yard—balancing food production, play, and long-term flexibility.
Front Yard
Potager
The front kitchen garden is organized as a formal yet highly productive threshold, where raised beds establish order along the entry sequence. A trellised portal introduces vertical structure and seasonal shade, while layered herbs, vegetables, and flowering companions soften the geometry with texture and movement. The result is a garden that feels intentional and abundant—an edible landscape that enhances curb appeal rather than reading as utilitarian.
Side
Corridor
The backyard is envisioned as a phased landscape that balances immediate productivity with long-term transformation. Modular raised beds activate the sunniest edge of the yard, while stepping-stone paths encircle a central play lawn that anchors daily family life. A trellised seating nook introduces vertical structure and shade, creating an outdoor room that will remain even as the garden evolves around a future pool.
