Before & After: A Custom Build, An Outdoor Entertaining Oasis and A Small Yard for Kids

Needed a revamp to feel fresh and contemporary

Large backyard pool, but small patio space

Several mature trees dotted around the landscape, but garden beds were sparse

Wanted a classic cottage feel

Larger patio for entertaining around the pool

Updated hardscape materials and retaining wall to update the space

Added plants throughout their garden beds to create the aspired look

Multiple outdoor “rooms” for use by teens and adults

An empty dirt lot and a blank canvas

Unsure how to lay out outdoor spaces

Needed a plan to submit to their HOA

Handy homeowners ready to DIY

Outdoor kitchen, entertainment space, al fresco dining, fire pit and still plenty of room for the kids!

Raised garden beds for homegrown produce

Standout curb appeal with front foundation plantings

Endless summer evenings spent outside

Unusable yard with a huge deck, 10 foot hot tub, multiple sheds and danger zones

Pooled water at the foundation of their home

Space surrounded by neighbors on all sides

No area for daughter to play

Lounge area, dining area, fire pit, play space, veggie garden and native plants

Fresh plants add vibrancy to their backyard and will fill the space and provide privacy as they mature

A play zone with a swing set

Layout that can transition as their daughter grows and needs change
