Full yard design service
This project started from “0” — the client remodeled their whole house, and everything outside was empty. When we were inside their new house, we felt the living room was quite spacious; indeed, the client valued their social time with friends, families, and their kids’ friends.
We realized it is important to echo what’s going on inside, either programmatically or visually, so the ideas from inside have been transferred to outside: We created a playful concrete slab path and a ‘floating’ deck for a group of 8, with enough planting to strengthen them.
Our goal in Design Documentation was to document our design intent clearly for contractors so as to minimize discrepancies.
