Starting with a blank canvas, this new construction home was the perfect fit for my clients – except the outdoor space. With a wish list that included a dining space, lounge area, a fire pit and a water feature, these clients wanted a space for relaxing by themselves, but also enough room to throw a party. By using a little Asian flare combined with a rocky mountain retreat feel, this backyard creates a statement through elegance, usability and sophistication. The existing deck was modified to allow for easier access to all areas of the patio. A centrally located water feature can easily be enjoyed from both the lounge area under the sunburst pergola or the sunken fire pit. The seat walls created using dry stacked stone allow for ample seating when multiple guests show up to enjoy the gas fire pit. Low voltage landscape lighting has been installed throughout the landscape to allow this sanctuary to be enjoyed both day and night. A fully automatic irrigation system keeps the plants watered and the fountain full. This landscape has it all, including the feel of home.
