A complete backyard transformation. Completed in 2013, this Dallas residence started with an empty backyard and was transformed into an inviting and relaxing escape featuring a new, luxury swimming pool with arched opening and rain curtain waterfalls. The project also features a private putting green, fire pit seating area, new travertine steps and terraces along with lush landscaping and trees.

This elegant putting green has a long, narrow configuration in the center and flares at both ends, surrounded by more artificial grass and a gorgeously landscaped edge. AlternaScapes can give you a beautiful putting green, too! Call us today!

This one is near and dear to my heart. Not only is it in my own backyard, it is also the first remodel project I've gotten to do for myself! This space was previously a detached two car garage in our backyard. Seeing it transform from such a utilitarian, dingy garage to a bright and cheery little retreat was so much fun and so rewarding! This space was slated to be an AirBNB from the start and I knew I wanted to design it for the adventure seeker, the savvy traveler, and those who appreciate all the little design details . My goal was to make a warm and inviting space that our guests would look forward to coming back to after a full day of exploring the city or gorgeous mountains and trails that define the Pacific Northwest. I also wanted to make a few bold choices, like the hunter green kitchen cabinets or patterned tile, because while a lot of people might be too timid to make those choice for their own home, who doesn't love trying it on for a few days?At the end of the day I am so happy with how it all turned out!

The owners of this home in Gilbert, AZ, opted for a complete backyard installation of artificial turf. They chose a lighter shade of green for their backyard. This was a good choice as a darker shade would have looked out of place with the palms and the almost oasis type feel of the yard. The sandstone pool surrounds give the yard a tropical feel. Having an entire yard of artificial turf means there is always plenty of space to sunbathe, sit under the palms, and generally relax.

This home in San Tan Valley, AZ, showcases what artificial turf does best, creating the perfect area for children to play on. It adds a splash of color and a sense of fun to the yard. The children’s play equipment helps to lift the yard and break up the grays of the house, pavers, and decorative gravel. The shrubs will help to diffuse the gray tones when they have grown. Because grass and the color green are found in nature, installing artificial turf never seems out of place or an afterthought.

This home in Gilbert, AZ, highlights how artificial turf and decorative gravel and borders work together. The turf works together with the home’s shrubs and plants, while the light gray stone and borders compliment the color of the house’s exterior. The two rectangles of artificial turf create a full yard of turf and prevent it from becoming just one green space. The owners have broken up the turf with decorative gravel and plants.

The owners of this Gilbert, AZ home obviously had conversation in mind when they decided to add an area of artificial turf to their backyard. The four chairs seem to say sit down and relax, put your bare feet on the turf. This area also acts as a welcoming secondary seating area. Notice the two chairs situated near the fire pit? If sitting there gets a bit too warm, you can always carry on the conversation on the turf. The barbeque near the pergola also signifies for you to take your meal over to the turf and enjoy it.

The natural grass seen on golf and putting greens might make people green with envy, since it’s so close cropped yet lush. But grass on putting greens needs an amazing amount of work to keep it healthy and manicured. Our golf and putting greens don’t.
