Entire Site Landscape
This property had and established landscape that was overgrown and in desperate need of a complete makeover. The project involved a new stone entranceway with a terraced front lawn area, extensive use of perennials to provide year round colour. The side yard was the ultimate storage space so when the backyard landscape was designed it provided passive access to the side area and quickly became the new entertainment location, Perimeter planting to respect the large maple tree canopy in both the front and back yard.

Entire Site Landscape
New home construction so we started with a blank slate, Included a very large deck with an inlaid hot tub, easy access to the pool area for this large family, The front driveway included off-colour paver accents to break up the large driveway expanse,
This was a large decking project that required special supports to accommodate the angler shapes. Planting was extensive to soften the large house walls.

Backyard Environment
The clients sold their cottage so the backyard of the City Home became the new outdoors. Created a Huck Finn theme complete with the wood decking right up to the waters edge, this required the unique concept to orientate the pools deep end closest to the house. Some other features are the seating area around the hot-tub and the dual purpose natural flagstone surface to become part of the pool coaping to provide a clean edge. Because of the pool elevation there was a requirement to create a swale for storm water runoff, The creation of a drainage swale running under the lower deck to the side water discharge area solved this.
