Patio Project
This project involved building a new patio using Tumbled Bluestone. Smooth and durable, bluestone will last for many years.
Stone Walls
Stone walls can create enclosures around the house, defining a cozy outdoor living space yet retaining the surrounding views.
Granite Cobbles
Granite cobbles are a natural and durable product for edging steps and walks - fantastic!
Walkway & Planting
We combined a circular patio with a brick walkway entry and planted Creeping Thyme in the cracks between the stones. A natural backyard planting sets off an exposed exisiting ledge.
Stone Steps
Grading is important whether setting pavers or granite steps. Start with the correct angles and slopes. Preparation is 90% of the work.
Retaining Wall
Separation of driveway from the entry is achieved with a stone wall that lessens the slope around the house, creating a comfort zone for walking.
Freestanding Wall & Patio
A freestanding wall allows sitting on top and creates this friendly space by the home, with entry points at each end. This patio was made with 2'x3' Bluestone pieces — a natural for a woodsy setting.
Pavers
Manufactured pavers can blend nicely with what is found in nature, such as beautiful stone found on site. A nice blending of materials is what we're after.
Elevation Changes
Elevation changes can be challenging. Steps and retaining walls can provide access and planting beds for new plants. Here is a turnaround for cars and a pleasant access to the higher entry area. New plants further compliment the area.
Steep Hillside
A steep hillside front entry can present difficulties but with the right materials, a welcoming approach can be designed.
A Variety of Projects
Granite
Pieces of granite from the past can be beautiful when set fresh on a new site. Working collaboratively with other designers in the landscape industry can better everyone's result — especially the client's.
Stone Landings
A series of steps should be broken up with stone landings if the site so dictates, making the walkway more comfortable to walk on.
Steps & Plants
Sometimes an 8" set of stone steps is necessary for the scale of the building structure next to the steps. Add a mix of plants to soften grades and hardscapes.
Sod
Sod is instant green to complement a new planting.
