Spring is the Perfect Time to Spruce Up Your Garden

Posted in Landscape and Pool Design - Orange County / LA by solenala March 14th, 2012

Say goodbye to the rainy days and  to the cold winter nights.  Hello spring, how we’ve missed you! If you’re like most people, your home and garden are looking pretty dull right now.

Now is the perfect time to put the color back in your garden and do the pruning and fertilizing that your yard needs at this crucial time of year.  Performing this maintenance now will insure a beautiful garden in the summer.

How to Create Your Ultimate Backyard Paradise: 8 Insider Secrets

Posted in Landscape and Pool Design - Orange County / LA by solenala December 20th, 2011

The principal designer of Solena Landscape, Mitch Kalamian, is not only a talented designer of outdoor spaces; he is also an author having penned a guide to smooth the progress of creating the ultimate outdoor paradise.

The guide, entitled “How to Create Your Ultimate Outdoor Paradise:  8 Insider Secrets Every Homeowner Considering Investing in a Major Landscape Project Must Know!”, walks consumers step-by-step through the sometimes-intimidating process of planning a landscaping project.   This is a “must-read” for homeowners BEFORE they start the process.

Some of the topics addressed in the guide include:

  • Budget:  what should it be and what affects it?
  • How to get a top designer to design your project for “free”.
  • Contracts:  what makes a “win-win” contract?  6 important tips you need to know.
  • The one thing you never want to say to a landscape designer.
  • The 4 important steps to creating your outdoor paradise…what options you need to consider.
  • Landscape “architect” vs. “designer”…are design/build firms a better choice?
  • Choosing the right landscape designer/contractor…what do you need to consider?  Does your contractor need to be licensed?

Homeowners are encouraged to complete a series of worksheets at the back of the guide that address:  the planning process, budget, how to choose a new service provider and contracts.  Completion of these worksheets will arm homeowners with the information they need to interview designers/contractors with confidence and make the right choices for their project.

The beginning of the year is a great time to start the design process of your landscape project for you to be able to enjoy it by summertime.

Exiciting beginning of a new Mediterranean Paradise!

Posted in Landscape and Pool Design - Orange County / LA by solenala September 7th, 2011


Watch as Mitch explains what goes on during the exciting first day of construction at new project.  With a space for a large dining set by a custom fountain, to an elevated living/lounge area with a custom fireplace overlooking the pool and spa.. The design is going to be a Mediterranean style entertainers delight!  Currently at the tail end of demolition and in the process of measuring out the plan onsite, to verify best use of space.  A lot of times what looks great on paper doesn’t necessarily pan out the same way in real life.  Always important to plot out what has been designed in the field to make sure the design is maximizing the space available.
