Southwest Garden(6 of 13)

In the same landscape, landscape architect Keith Anderson also created this Southwest garden, complete with "musicians."
Along with the Asian- and European-style gardens, the entire landscape fits into an acre lot. Social events held in the three spaces have seen up to 270 people at one time in the garden. "For a small backyard, it's pretty amazing," Keith says. "It's not as big as you think, but the design creates the illusion that it's huge."
