Bridge House

Designed by Dan Brunn Architecture, Bridge House does just that—bridges over a natural stream. Segal Shuart designed the landscape at Bridge House to juxtapose the clean, linear architecture with a natural, meandering landscape, as if the structure emerged within a garden that was always there. We chose to highlight existing trees, add new ones, and to keep the plant palette loose, further accentuating the compelling building. Breaking down the site’s existing topography into three plant zones – dry, bank, and riparian – provides subtle clues that the landscape directly relates to the creek running under this unique home.
