Baldasari Residence

The Baldasari residence in Irvine is a unique residence that contains not a typical Asian-inspired garden but a reflection of the owners that live there. The garden itself starts from the moment you step onto the property, as you are treated to a taste of what is to follow. The detailed planting and stonework guide you to the front door. Once invited in, you are once again treated to views of the gardens through large windows. The collection of Asian art is placed throughout the home. The windows become pieces of art themselves as they showcase the outdoor spaces. The gardens are a canvas where seasonal change is welcomed. The sound of water, the feel of stone, and the warmth of breezes flow through this garden. To be viewed from within the home or within the garden, there is a sense of calm and nature that transcends the everyday life of the community beyond the garden walls.
