By Emily Young<br />
When new owners renovated a 1927 house by architect Paul Kingsbury, who worked on the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, they took pains to create a new landscape that looked like it belonged with an old house. Among the additions: a backyard dining pergola and outdoor fireplace on opposite ends of an olive allee, which is underplanted with succulents. "The upper space was odd, almost but not quite rectangular," designer Scott Daigre says. "With the allee, you don't notice so much that the shape is off."
