Hood Residence

The Hoods’ new landscape distinguishes their home from others in their suburban neighborhood.

Rick Hood’s preference for natural stone, native plants, and wildlife-friendly habitat evoke his Alaska homeland, while Southern Magnolia, flowering Dogwood, and fragrant lilac suggest Linda Hood’s Southern roots.

The once-dominant lawn has been reduced to a few narrow strips. A generous flagstone path meanders through the front garden, widens to an informal seating area, and connects the existing walkway to the back yard.
