This stunning two-story deck is the perfect place to host many guests - all with different locations. The second-story provides an excellent place for grilling and eating. The ground-level space offers a fire feature and covered seating area. Extended by hardscaping beyond the covered ground-level space, there is a fire pit for even further gathering.

The perfect combination of a screened in porch and a sunroom. With Eze Breeze, you can quickly close and protect your porch or screen room when an unexpected thunderstorm pops up or when a major dusting of spring pollen threatens to invade your home. Eze Breeze allows you the ability to enjoy your porch when you want to enjoy it, not when weather dictates.

Visitors can step up to raised levels on both sides of the spa and pool: To the right is an outdoor seating area with a circular fire feature mounted in the cantilevered cast concrete steps.

Inspiration for a traditional landscaping in Atlanta.

A lush rooftop garden overlooking Boston’s historic Back Bay offers stunning views of the Prudential and John Hancock Tower. The character of the site is amplified by the dramatic contrast between architecture and sky. Mature magnolias underplanted with hostas form a threshold into the historic brownstone. Weathered-wood planting beds spill with new hardy shrubs, perennials, grasses, and herbs; a paper birch and a wind-sculpted spruce lend dramatic texture, structure, and scale to the space. Rugosa rose, juniper, lilac, peony, iris, perovskia, artemisia, nepeta, heuchera, sedum, and ornamental grasses survive year round and paint a brilliant summer-long display. A collection of new and antique containers dot the rooftop, and a terrific orchid collection rests beneath the birch tree during summer months.
