Client’s Wish:

To transform their backyard into a peaceful retreat where they could connect with nature and escape the stresses of everyday life. The client envisioned a space filled with native plants and natural elements that would attract wildlife and promote relaxation.

OBSTACLES:

Limited space and existing landscaping presented challenges, but creative solutions were implemented to maximize the potential of the site. Additionally, navigating local regulations and permit requirements required careful attention to detail.

Native Plant Features:

The heart of this project lies in its native plantings, carefully selected to thrive in the local climate and support native wildlife. Species such as Eastern Redbud, Butterfly Weed, and Switchgrass create a biodiverse ecosystem that enhances the beauty and ecological value of the space.

We loved creating a lakeside retreat that feels as though it has always belonged here. Natural bluestone, layered woodland planting and the property’s mature trees come together to create an inviting space for gathering, relaxing and enjoying the lake and the owner’s beautiful home.
