This is a newly built home requiring complete plans for the front and backyard. The homeowners wanted a front seating area, a backyard entertainment zone, and low maintenance. The tight footprint, elevation changes, and potential surface water issues were design challenges. We created a small front patio tucked into low-maintenance garden beds, a revamped front entrance, and a lux backyard entertainment space that provided seating for watching games on an outdoor large screen television, dining, and a fire pit. The design carved out room for a kid’s fort and obstacle course area along with needed green space.
