Backyard Landscaping
Shade making pergola-perhaps a design more transitional than oriental.
Love color palette of pavers.
Partial stacked stone wall that can be used to visually segment yard but also provide seating for guests.
Stacked rock walls with accent fire pit. Also like the radius in design.
Very inviting outdoor living area that leads from a deck landing outside french doors at house.
Small landing
Intriguing landing at back door.
Simple landing with seating.
Nice wide landings in two tiers.
Nice two tiered landings.
Bench seating at a corner of deck tier.
No “step”; just a two tiered deck landing.
Medium size with small landing out door
Small landing with wide step onto lawn.
Small multi-tiered deck landing at back door for low height.
Deck “fence” is minimal allowing maximum visibility.
Interesting angle of the tiered landings.
Interesting use of concrete as large pavers with crushed granite between.
Very useful fire pit—warmth as well as cooking. Love the stone wall seating area around fire pit that’s tucked in corner of yard.
Nice front of house lighting; using up lights for trees.
Nice landscape lighting scheme. Lighting on walkway as well as up lighting the trees.
Pretty raised bed. The hay added around plants helps maintain moisture for plant.
Cozy sitting area.
Lovely shed appropriate for large mower and other yard tools.
Sliding door on shed. Design could include another barn slider door on wall 90 degrees to make a large opening for large lawn mower.
A smaller shed that could be used for mower storage and other large yard tools.
Multi-purpose shed for mower storage and other large outdoor tools. This particular building is too large for my taste.
Large birdbath style water feature located next to quaint sitting area.
Curved flower bed subtly cuts through walkway breaking up the strong geometric path.
Beautiful water feature that should provide bird watching activity.
Lovely rocking chairs sitting area.
Lovely flower garden ; would especially be wonderful if was a perennial garden planting that came back year to year with minimal maintenance.
Interesting in ground garden in a raised bed. Peat gravel as ground cover to control weeds. Then a totally surrounding fence to keep deer and other critters out. Pretty as well as practical!
Large shaded yard with mature trees providing lots of focal areas for outdoor enjoyment. Love the walkway design winding from right side area across back yard to the left side.
Beautiful bluestone paver walkway winding around backyard connecting the various focal areas. Patio placement around mature trees and lots of shade.
Multicolor and variant size of paver material; designated function areas for sitting, lounging and eating without looking formal; use of colorful garden varieties outlining patio. Beautiful!
Steps to handle a slight change in yard slope.
Fire pit, retaining wall, large stone pavers.
Mixed muted colors of pavers with contrast edge. Curves.
Guide wires for the hanging outdoor lights are nice. It would provide a cheery glow over the patio area
More modern walkway...kind of a meandering pathway.
Pergola with narrow boards as “roof” with more boxed ended cuts on support beams.
