Backyard Haven Brought to Life

An extensive inground pool installation left this homeowner’s landscape with the less-than-pleasant aftermath of construction. A series of landscape design features transformed the space from a basic pool to a stylish poolscape with endless opportunities for fun. 

Lush local plantings with vibrant blooms surround the area, with meticulously designed planting beds featuring cleanly edged borders. A Unilock paver patio sits beside the water and invites guests to enjoy the sunshine on a summer day. The finished product is a balanced and refreshing getaway for calming afternoons and gatherings with friends.

Fine-Tuned Finishing Touches

As new home construction wrapped up for these customers, something was missing from their landscape’s aesthetic. They now come home to a balanced and stylish front planting display equipped with mindfully selected shrubs that add bold color and lively texture to their facade. When viewing the home from the curb, the final planting bed design creates a delicate symmetry of natural beauty that draws the family and their guests right to the front door.

Thoughtfully Sloped Design

These clients faced a complex challenge in their landscape design—a highly sloped entrance to a walkout basement door. The current setup was both inaccessible and far from the look they desired.

By incorporating natural stone steps and surrounding it with gentle planting beds, the entryway is now stylized and easier to maneuver. Multi Colored river rock replaced traditional mulch, adding an eye-catching touch and assisting with drainage on the sloped setting.

Reimagined Front Facade

Building a new home can be hard on the surrounding landscape, and this customer longed for a lush design that matched their new stunning home. The process entailed installing new sod to give the front yard a fresh start. Newly mulched planting beds balance the verdant green of the new lawn and feature local plantings such as an array of shrubs that will add more and more rich textures as the years go by. The combination of the new sod and planting beds creates an eye-catching finished result tailored to the beauty of the new architecture.

Tranquil Poolscape Destination

The total transformation of this landscape is a reminder of how comprehensive landscape design can change the energy of a home. These homeowners envisioned using the vast space on their property for an inground fiberglass pool as well as for all the features that encourage a great afternoon gathering with family and friends. In addition to the pool, this dynamic project included an outdoor pavilion equipped with a bar and seating area, helping provide shade on the new paver patio. While the initial poolscape design included a concrete pool surround, the homeowners opted for pavers in the end for that extra durability and style.

Backyard Hosting Oasis

This homeowner knew that they could do so much more with their outdoor living space when given the right design. While the previous landscape featured a concrete patio and a small planting bed, the owners envisioned a modern and sleek design that would encourage more backyard gatherings and bring out the space’s natural beauty. 

Stunning brick pavers took the place of concrete and aesthetically paired with the built-in grill. Natural stepping stone walkways guide visitors to an enchanting gathering of planting beds and an additional seating area for afternoons among the blooms. Lastly, front planting beds balance out the design with the newly enhanced backyard.

Reinvigorated Function and Design

When the results of other landscape companies come up short, fresh eyes can offer durable and refreshing solutions. Erosion and drainage issues plagued this homeowner’s above-ground pool deck, and so an innovative rock-bed design solved the issue while adding a stylish accent to the backyard. To complement this new look, the homeowner now enjoys a newly refreshed front yard landscape design, equipped with a similar rock-filled entryway design packed with lively native plantings.

Stylish & Elevated Blooms

The innovative application of a Techo-Bloc retaining wall overhauled the experience of exploring this homeowner’s landscape. A retaining wall was the key to the home’s flowing landscape while offering space for layered planting beds with everything from blossoming annuals to newly installed trees. The added raised layers of beauty now turn heads from passing neighbors and welcome home the owners with an inviting and lush design.

A Fresh Welcome Home

The right landscape design can streamline the way an owner uses their home on a daily basis. Dealing with two oddly placed front entrances, these homeowners desired a stylish linking element to increase the accessibility and beauty of their front facade. The resulting raised entranceway patio and retaining wall utilized Unilock pavers in combination of softly hued natural stone with a brick border. Newly installed planting beds with shrubs and colorful annuals surround the entranceway and guide visitors to one of either of the front doors.
