A black diamond boulder was selected, set, then hand-drilled on-site to accept a recessed gas burner. The flame appears to rise directly from the stone — no visible hardware, no surround.
A second black diamond boulder was cut and leveled to become a floating bench on the upper terrace — mass as furniture, anchored into the turf plane without a visible base.
COB strip lighting and low-voltage fixtures are set flush through the landscape. No fixture is visible by day — at night each zone pools in warm light, anchored by the fire at the center.
