Pre-design brainstorming
We wanted to create something magical, and come up with the idea of creating a very unique Oasis of Sanctuary that has a strond Identity, Usability and Relaxing atmosphere.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This space, housing Exotic Orchards & Wellness Programs, provides private and group retreats. Our designing work began in 2020 when its owners Laurence and Yulia contacted us. They had an overall idea of this retreat business, but didn't know where to begin. We came up with the holistic vision for the conceptual design, which, upon numerous changes that took us about 2 years, grew into the version you can see in the video. We were so astounded of this amazing couple who not only got the design intentions but also were fully engaged in the process. Today, this is a true oasis in Bonsall for retreats that helps other people to restore their energy. It is a four-acre property that originally consisted of fifty-year-old avocado and pomegranate orchards that were in decline. The owners lovingly restored the orchards through pruning and planting cover crops with pollinators, among other natural techniques. We designed several other areas to complement what already existed, including a temple garden; a multipurpose space they call the Dragon’s Den which has a hot/cold tub, seating for dining, a dance floor, and a Balinese entry; an eighty-foot pergola farm table for hosting farm to table events; over 3000 square feet of vegetable and flower terraces; a new waterfall and pond.
