Landscape architect Greg Trutza adapted a Renaissance garden idea for a Phoenix terrace: a water channel set into the top of a low wall, inspired by the Villa d'Este at Tivoli. The channel wraps around an upper patio and becomes a spillway at one end, projecting a graceful arc of recirculating water into a spa on a lower terrace. The sights and sounds of this miniature aqueduct are especially refreshing on hot summer afternoons.
