Extreme Backyard Makeover

When you have a willing client that takes the time to assemble a talented group of skilled craftsman and then introduces them to a 1970's back yard with the intent to do an Extreme Backyard Make Over, wonderful magic can happen. This was the case with our clients in Saratoga, Ca, when our team was asked to create a unique outdoor living environments to enhance their active life style. This project was a success because of the combined talents of Peter Koenig Designs, Michael Tebb Landscape Design and Construction and Creative Environments Swimming Pool Design and Construction…. thank you all for a great TEAM JOB.

With the solar heater on the roof for the swimming pool and the outdoor fire pit, this view in the yard shows off most of the outdoor living spaces. From the cozy fire you can survey the full back yard. A glass of wine, the bocce court just to the right and the warmth of the fire in the evening...

In this photo you can see the blend of landscape and hard scape. The pool environment is inviting from most ever corner of the yard with the comfort of the heated cabana and over sized living spaces. The appointment of bluestone paving throughout the backyard adds to the craftsman architecture.

The wrought iron fence was typical back in those days as was the white coping stones and white plaster to...
