Designer Erick Garcia heads to Los Angeles for a $60,000 dream backyard renovation in the first episode of Replace This Space. Julie Sariñana, known best for her popular fashion and lifestyle account Sincerely Jules, sensed the backyard of her Spanish-style home in Los Angeles had the potential to better suit her aesthetic (and entertain her large family!) That’s when Erick, in partnership with CB2, stepped up to design and deliver a backyard that checked all of her boxes.

the only thing i would change is to have a strip of greenery right in the middle overflown with bushes and grasses and possible a very tiny pond
I listen to the entire thing to find out if he was ever going to end a sentence either the same pitch or lower than where he started it. Twice it happened. In every other situation, his voice goes up by an interval of at least a fifth. Anyone else notice?
whats the lawn area?
Love Erics work
But it's not worth $60K 😂😂
Gorgeous!!!😧❤
The California accent is strong with this one
Thank you for removing the grass! Everything is beautiful. I hope more are inspired to get rid of their grass.
His accent is so annoying. Sounds like he's asking questIONS? But it's a nice job.
Is it a Hispanic thing to want to pave every bit of grass on a lot? Where I live, people take beautiful lawns and turn them into cement – right to the lot lines. Instead of mowing lawn, they get out the leaf blowers all weekend long….
The before was much better, more natural and lovely. The after is like so bland and just like a house, not natural at all!!!
Just HIDEOUS – I can't believe some one would take away and all that nice cool greenery and replace it with paving. It was SO much nicer before. If anyone created this contrived mess in my yard I would sue them. Tacky, tacky and….. tacky.
Disappointed. Not much in the way of plants, and way too many are silver/gray. The lawn was far too big and shapeless, but it helped give freshness to the space and now there's an overall dustiness. Even desert landscapes can look full and lush, but this never will. The bougainvillea will never cover the wall if it stays in that little pot. He should have suggested a sandy/terra-cotta-y paint for the house to soften the glare and be a little truer to the style…
$60K for THAT?
$60k for the trashest, cheap chairs??? Some pots and plants? Terrible.
It looks restulf
They were really vibing!
Great video.
Would like to have seen to construction portion, a "how-to".
Great channel. Thanks
kill your lawn. replace with natives that have evolved with the ecosystem and support pollinators. monoculture lawns are passée. also, poor gophers. i hope they have reworked their tunnels so they don't bump their heads.
love this..no maintainace yard with clearly defined uses amd thoughtful use of space…
Am i the only one who loved the first garden?
Fabulous, you did an incredible job . 💗
Very nice. But wouldn't it be easier not to have to carry the food so far
I liked it before.
I'd HOPE you'd like things under 3K-4K Kelvin!
Amazing!❤️
how does this happen for 60k he must not charge for his services.
How is the squirrel???
Nice renovation, hope that backyard table edge is sanded down
The designer has an odd speech pattern where his voice goes up at the end of every sentence so that everything he says sounds like a question. Am I the only one that noticed? The after looks really nice. Not my style, but I can appreciate it all the same.
What the fk was that sound at start…lol
No koi pond ☹️
This is not a gardener's backyard….but it is very beautiful. I love the flagstone imbedded in the pulverized granite.
Im a big fan of grass so im not feeling it, but he did what Jules wanted and what was in the brief to make it California/mediterranean vibe so i get how it turned out. And the gophers had to go lol
I do not understand why one needs to blaspheme to express joy.
Remember a lawn will soak up water and help ease flooding unless replaced by a good permeable patio and drainage.
Beautiful but should have used synthetic lawn…bit too drab imo 🙃
I think before it look better than after a lot
I love this! It looks beautiful and is exactly what I would love to have if I lived in LA. Lawns are not a natural part of Southern California ecosystem and cannot survive without excessive watering- it is bad for the environment! It is so much better in a hot dry climate to have a lawn-free yard and embrace greenery that naturally grows in that climate!!
Nothin special, pretty basic in my opinion.
Wow!!! 😍
Is pretty but i like more whit the grass 👌
Interesting, squirrels peeping and falling on them…😊😊the designer's attitude towards the owner's needs is so energetic and vibrant!
good job
As a landscape architect, having worked for a few firms, he did an absolutely incredible job for 60k dollars. I know some companies that would slap a 200k price tag on a transformation like that.
Not nice
I want this for my home!
Just leave it and enjoy the gophers
low key feel like she hates it. lol
