The project, designed by Alder- wood Landscaping i in Spokane, is characterized by clean lines and minimalist aesthetics all planned around the stunning view of the Co- lumbia River. “That was a fun project to work on,” said Nick Alexander, Alderwood landscape designer. “It’s pretty amazing out there when you get in that space and look out over the horizon.” Alderwood integrated water and fire elements by strategically posi - tioning a hot tub and firepit to cele - brate the expansive river.
