Landscape Renovation
A beautiful older home needed exterior updates and a more welcoming approach for visitors. An entire landscaping makeover included a brand new planting scheme in the front, reconfigured front entrance of bluestone and Unilock stone planter boxes for visual interest.
Backyard Makeover
A Backyard Getaway Bare and unusable, this small back yard needed to be re-designed to reflect the owners’ lifestyles. A deck and outdoor kitchen was built that featured a built in grill, seating benches and granite counter tops. A spacious bluestone patio was designed to accommodate a large dining table for large gatherings. The resulting spaces are surrounded by lush plantings and splashes of color and texture throughout the back yard

Bacyard Patio
The owners of this residence wanted a large, open patio space to enjoy their tranquil back yard landscaping. It had to have some shade, some sun and a place to gather around the bonfire. A landscape design was created that integrated the existing enclosed porch with a large paver patio, courtyard walls and pillars. The patio included a small, shaded seating area under a pergola, an integrated fire pit and a large open space for gathering and dining.
Bacyard Entertaining Space
With a beautiful, open yard but nowhere to sit in the shade and relax, these homeowners needed a space that offered it all. The old, cramped deck was expanded and rebuilt with maintenance free composite decking and rails. A new deck staircase leads to a large bluestone patio in the back yard, protected from the shade by a cedar pergola. Cultured stone pillars and walls surround portions of the patio to create a cozy, private area for 10-12 people to mingle comfortably. The new landscaping features a sunken firepit area big enough for 6-8 to relax around the fire.

Bacyard Sanctuary
The homeowners were never quite sure how to use their small, shady back yard. They finally decided on an outdoor entertaining area, and contracted our company to design a unique getaway. A paver patio was built into the slope of the back yard, resulting in a cozy, natural feel. A Rosetta stone built in bench is the highlight of this new area, inviting friends and family to extend their summer evenings by the bonfire.

Exterior Makeover
Visitors to this home weren’t even sure how to get from the driveway to the front door!
The home was characterized by busy lines, a confusing entry configuration and not a whole
lot of curb appeal. After consulting with the Client, the entryway configuration and complete exterior update were designed: custom landscaping, stone courtyard and walk, cultured stone chimney and maintenance-free composite siding and trim.
Entryway Renovatiom
This unique home was in need of a reconfigured entryway and front yard landscape. Since the yard sloped toward the house, a new drainage plan was also required. The new design provides a clean, contemporary way to welcome visitors, and manage runoff away from the structure. The concept includes re-shaping of the yard, stone retaining walls, and a large, open bluestone walk, surrounded by lush plantings. The new space is finished off by natural boulders, a dry stream and a stone bench.
