Modern native garden
By Debra Prinzing
When Scott Lenz and Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz decided to renovate their L.A. house rather than move, the architecture team of Adrian Koffka and Cynthia Phakos of Koffka/Phakos Design suggested that the putty-gray stucco could be complemented with a yellow-green door.

The vibrant palette is a fine foil for a new landscape -- and the Pod Version 1.0 planter set on a low stand.
