In the late 1990s, The Edge bought a Spanish Revival estate in Malibu, California. Set into a coastal hillside, the property overlooks the Pacific, with terraced architecture that follows the slope. Instead of enclosing the home with conventional walls, however, he took a softer approach – using trees and dense plants for privacy to screen the property from view.
The landscaping works in layers, with tall palm trees framing the white stucco exterior and helping to block sightlines to the upper balconies. Closer to the ground, coastal melaleuca and Indian Laurel Fig fill in the gaps, creating a dense green buffer around the living spaces.
