Award Winning Garden. At the 2006 San Francisco Flower and Garden Show at the Cow Palace on March 15 - 19, 2006, DJ Curb Appeal's garden creation titled Stone Gardenwas awarded a Silver medal.



Stone Garden is a contemporary, modern and minimalist interpretation of an ancient Chinese asethetic going back to the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907).

Stone and rocks are the essence of qi energy or universal life force. In the West they have been characterized as "rock stars" or "Picasso viewing stones."

The "rock stars" play a prominent role and stand out in a simplified garden. The plantings play a supporting role as they whisper, bend and bow with the wind paying homage to the bones of the world. River rock benches provide respite for contemplation and connection to an ancient aesthetic.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to transform ordinary living and work habitats to approach art using fine Asian pieces, old and new.



How do we approach Asian style design

Every living or work space or landscape project is different. Many factors are involved in determining the right design for you. Natural light, wall colors, floor textures, room size, existing house design and many more factors are considered. We contemplate before we offer a design that best meets your need. But what we do best is to use Asian art for contemporary living.


Who Are We?

We are interior and landscape designers focusing on Asian styles for the contemporary home. Some of our associates are "cultural historians" who are experts in feng shui, calligraphy and seal making. Others are experts in landscaping, color selection, fabrics and textiles, floor coverings, stone and wood work.
