Paver Patio Lays The Foundation
These clients called us to create a backyard with distinct living areas: eating, cooking and seating. We used a mixture of pavers to distinguish the various areas and as well as create continuity through the whole project. These kinds of special design elements were talked through with our clients to ensure their happiness with the budget and end result.
Outdoor Dining
This dining area is another major area our clients wanted added to their outdoor space. Dinner parties filled with friends and freshly-grilled food was one of their reasons for contacting us. Situated next to the outdoor kitchen, the grill master won’t have far to travel when delivering their sizzling fare.
Outdoor Kitchen & Bar Seating
A beautiful outdoor kitchen has to be more than just something pretty to look at. It also needs function. This outdoor kitchen has everything you need to create that unforgettable outdoor meal. Our clients can serve appetizers at the bar while the main course cooks away or banter with friends over a cold one.
We made a mid-project modification when our clients decided to install a Big Green Egg by enlarging the kitchen island to accommodate the smoker. Stone veneer and honed granite countertops really push this kitchen to the next level.
Retaining Wall
This retaining wall is helpful for our clients and their dogs for several reasons, but most importantly, the wall is a beautiful boundary to their patio. The client loved the natural stone steps from another project, so we designed and built solid limestone steps providing access to the lower portion of the landscaping for them and their dogs.
Landscape Lighting
Strategic landscape lighting creates a dramatic effect at night. Looking through the open windows from inside, our clients get to enjoy their backyard in a whole new….light.
