Location: Felicita Escondido, CA
Overlook investigates the spatial articulation of a steeply sloped bluff margin, converting a severe topographic constraint into a primary visual and functional anchor. The site plan is organized along an axial sightline directed toward horizon views. By establishing a series of terraced platforms and cantilevered deck thresholds, the design negotiates vertical elevation changes while preserving uninterrupted view corridors, framing distinct outdoor living zones along the estate’s perimeter.
Redwood Pergola and Lounge
Architectural redwood pergola framing constructed over a dedicated seating terrace, providing targeted solar shading, structural enclosure, and spatial definition.
Composite Deck & Live Edge Redwood
High-performance composite deck platform engineered over a pressure-treated Douglas fir sub-framing matrix, integrated with marine-grade 316 stainless-steel cable tension railings and topped with a custom-milled, live-edge redwood top rail cap.
Custom Steel Gates
Custom-fabricated structural steel access gates engineered with concealed heavy-duty hinge assemblies, integrated mechanical latching, and a dark powder-coated finish designed for long-term corrosion resistance in coastal microclimates.
Drought-Tolerant Softscape & Permeable Hydrology
Low-water, climate-adapted planting palette set within permeable decomposed granite and crushed aggregate matrices, establishing root-zone slope stabilization and passive stormwater infiltration across natural grade contours.
