The unique design of this lake home and the surrounding natural landscape complement each other perfectly, resulting in beautiful lake views and a spacious, comfortable living area that welcomes guests.

It's been a great autumn here at BPI! Just as the leaves are falling, we spotlight the idyllic fall backyard retreat of the First family. Their multi-level space includes a hot tub, firepit area, and decorative cedar structure that creates the perfect space for their family to enjoy these chilly Indiana nights. They also have great taste in adding the little details that make their space so inviting. Enjoy!

Our homeowner was looking for a garden that she could entertain in, but that was also safe for her young grandson. We built a patio cover for dining, a lounging area with a gas burning firepit, and created a sandy beach play area complete with shells, pebbles, and a hummingbird water spout for making sand castles. Newly planted, these plants still need to grown in. We used pea gravel for the main area, natural washed concrete for the pathways, and Mexican beach pebbles between the concrete pads.
