The Gaddam Residence

San Francisco, CA
Garden structure/sculpture, Water feature

A captivating urban sanctuary where the timeless elegance of a Georgian home is accentuated by a diverse array of magnolias and cypresses, proudly adorning the front yard. This botanical collection, featuring a spectrum of magnolia species, establishes a stunning living tableau that pays homage to the home's architectural grandeur. The front yard also features a fountain that incorporates a 1920s bronze vessel that was restored and seamlessly integrated into the walkway. In the secluded serenity of the backyard, the innovation of modern landscape artistry unfolds. Two living walls, conceived by the visionary Davis Dalbok, rise like verdant tapestries, weaving lush textures and vibrant shades of green into the fabric of the space. These vertical gardens stand as a testament to contemporary design, marrying beauty with sustainability. Complementing this green haven, a bronze water sculpture by the renowned Archie Held stands as the centerpiece, its fluid form and soothing sounds crafting a tranquil urban oasis. Here, the interplay of water and sculpture captures the essence of tranquility, creating an environment that not only dazzles the senses but also provides a soul-soothing retreat from the city's bustling pace. This harmonious blend of historical reverence, botanical beauty, and artistic expression transforms the property into an enclave of peace and beauty, offering an unparalleled urban living experience.
