DETAILS
Due to the steep grade of this site and extensive Heritage Oak trees, M|M staged the construction by first building the lower pool and retaining walls to support the house foundation above. The second stage included excavation and pouring curved retaining walls for the driveway and the foundation for the main residence. The main house foundation was particularly complicated, to solve for this we used a combination of friction piers and footings tied into the bedrock.
