Contemporary Backyard Designed for Comfort
Designed for a young professional couple that wanted a space for both hosting and relaxing, we created a simple, contemporary design with a custom patio and a tall yet slender planting design to provide privacy and a feeling of intimacy in a half-sized (25'x100') city lot.
We were happy with the results and the clients were thrilled that it all came together within their budget.
