This pretty and practical outdoor area features style, form and function that wow.
When you design the landscape for your home, the designs you implement will be the backdrop for your memories— all the birthdays, holiday celebrations and get-togethers will play out on the hearth and grounds you create for your family.
No one understands this better than Sean Papich, owner of Sean Papich Landscape Architecture. He, with his interior decorator wife, Tami, purchased a home in Hingham, Massachusetts, and quickly realized that they needed to level the existing house to build a new Cape Cod-style home and redo the landscape. “The property was in very marginal shape,” Sean recounts. “It was overgrown and dated.”
As a landscape architect, Sean had a unique vision for the property. “I wanted the garden to be a bit of a testing ground for plantings and hardscape materials, while still maintaining cohesion and fitting the home’s architectural style.”
