LANDSCAPING PORTFOLIO
A sloping backyard becomes a functional extension of the home. Natural materials create a timeless look in an established community and shade tolerant plantings provide interest under the mature shade trees. A new front entry provides a more solid and functional connection visually and physically from the street.
A wooded backyard is converted into a home retreat featuring a large pool and natural stone pool patio. Outdoor kitchen and bar add to the entertainment of the space. Taking advantage of a sloping property dramatic water feature creates a focal point and an irregular stone patio provides relaxing views of the entire space.
A contemporary makeover for this corner lot to create a refined functional elegance. New and realigned entry stands out prominently and focuses attention to the architecture of the house. A more private backyard space includes a stream and waterfall to a lower patio with built in spa and natural fire feature.
Enhance pool space by turning a plain pool patio into the total package outdoor living space. Plantings soften the space while a new water feature enhances atmosphere. Additional seating and access were created to make it more convenient and a new outdoor kitchen solidifies the space as an extension of the home.
Natural waterfall with several reflective pools. With the yard being flat the decorative urn adds dimension with the backdrop of trees behind it. It looks as though it floats in the water. The decorative bowl adds interest and creates a real conversation piece. Pondscape lighting makes for a totally different landscape at night.
Converting a sterile stormwater pond to an amenity and naturalized element of this large property. Naturalized perimeter plantings blended into the homes landscaping help tie the property together and adds wildlife and pollinator value. The added waterfall and wetland filter brings an aesthetic and auditory component missing from the original pond and adds value to the new rustic firepit space while helping improve the health of the system for local wildlife.
