MASONS WERE TASKED TO MAKE THE STONE WORK LOOK AS THOUGH “A FARMER BUILT THE WALLS DURING THE NON-PLANTING SEASON,” THE FINAL DESIGN SIMPLIFIES THE FIRST FLOOR PLAN AND LEAVES LOGICAL LOCATIONS FOR EXPANSION INTO COMING DECADES.

Large pots can be used as focal points in the garden, with or without plantings inside.
Large, historic home from the 1930's overlooking downtown Santa Cruz. My clients are self-described "plantaholics" and tend to buy many plants, only to have them die. They have an extensive gardening area and low water budget. Our main goal was to make the overall design cohesive between various areas of the garden while utilizing interesting and unusual plant selections - a very fun project for me! We removed over 3,000 square feet of traditional grass and replaced it with several lawn alternatives. The first is a walkable groundcover that uses a fraction of the water of regular grass (and can be seen here in several seasons, one of which has tiny flowers); The second is a California native grass that grows long (or can be kept short) and can tolerate some shade. Both of these are excellent choices for clients with children or dogs who want a green patch without using excessive water. My clients love plants from Australia and South Africa so plants from the Proteacea and other Southern Hemisphere beauties are used predominantly throughout the project. Clean, flowing water is so important for wildlife and the beautiful stone fountain is a constant gathering spot for birds and other animals. My clients are beyond thrilled with their gorgeous, nature-filled garden and ever-expanding plant knowledge.

With the incorporation of accent lighting, custom waterfalls and cutting edge technology, we created for the homeowner not just a pool, but an entire outdoor living space. This project focused on an unusual level of creativity due to the history of the home. Build in the 1900s and located in a historical preservation neighborhood, it was essential that we incorporated the historic elegance of the area into our pool design.

Historic bath renovation with classic white subway tile and hexagon porcelain tile floor. Excellent craftsmanship with attention to finishing details.

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN: Award of Excellence
PROJECT: McKeesport Downtown Housing
CLIENT: ACTION-Housing, Inc.
ARCHITECTURE FIRM: Thoughtful Balance
ENGINEERS: Allstate Surveying and Mapping Co.; Conway Engineering; Iams Consulting, LLC
CONTRACTORS: Repal Construction
PHOTOGRAPHER: Denmarsh Photography; Nina Baird
DESCRIPTION: McKeesport Downtown Housing, formerly a YMCA, is an 84-unit SRO for people at risk of homelessness. The old brick and terracotta building was important historically for McKeesport. The project was designed to Passive House criteria, the first of this scale to be designed to Passive House standards anywhere in the country. Although lighting, an elevator, air-conditioning, constant ventilation, and cooking equipment were added, the building now uses 68% less energy consumption than as it was originally built.
JURY COMMENTS: Loving care and attention to detail are present everywhere in this very tight-budgeted solution. It is an excellent example of creating a sustainable option for those who might need it the most.

Large, historic home from the 1930's overlooking downtown Santa Cruz. My clients are self-described "plantaholics" and tend to buy many plants, only to have them die. They have an extensive gardening area and low water budget. Our main goal was to make the overall design cohesive between various areas of the garden while utilizing interesting and unusual plant selections - a very fun project for me! We removed over 3,000 square feet of traditional grass and replaced it with several lawn alternatives. The first is a walkable groundcover that uses a fraction of the water of regular grass (and can be seen here in several seasons, one of which has tiny flowers); The second is a California native grass that grows long (or can be kept short) and can tolerate some shade. Both of these are excellent choices for clients with children or dogs who want a green patch without using excessive water. My clients love plants from Australia and South Africa so plants from the Proteacea and other Southern Hemisphere beauties are used predominantly throughout the project. Clean, flowing water is so important for wildlife and the beautiful stone fountain is a constant gathering spot for birds and other animals. My clients are beyond thrilled with their gorgeous, nature-filled garden and ever-expanding plant knowledge.

This gorgeous, walkable grass alternative is literally watered ONCE A MONTH folks!!! In the summertime! This is true water conservation!

Brick patio Kansas City or paver patios Kansas City are the best investment for improving the landscape and outlook of your yard. Careful selection of the brick pattern and color while keeping in mind the matching backgrounds in your surroundings is very important but it may go waste unless the patio is installed carefully. Though not tough and complicated, ignorance of basics in installation can ruin the patterns besides reducing the life of the patio.
Building a paver patio or remodeling an existing one is an exciting process for any homeowners. The most fun and important decision is choosing a color and shape that meets not only your aesthetic needs but your lifestyle needs as well.
Kansas City Paver Patios and Paver stone installations Kansas City are very popular because of their beauty and ability to enhance any landscape. Paver stones are incredibly versatile and can be designed in any configuration and size to create patios, outdoor kitchens, pool decks, courtyards and walkways to meet client needs and the needs of the landscape. With the wide variety of materials, sizes, colors and patterns available our landscape design experts will help you create the desert oasis of your dreams.
In addition to being an affordable and aesthetically beautiful option, they are quite durable and incredibly low maintenance. A wooden deck needs to be maintained seasonally and may need constant repairs due to damage from weather. With paver patios or paver stone installations, there is almost no maintenance and they are very easy to repair as needed. The advantages of paver patios or paver stone installations are numerous and there are really no drawbacks. Paver patios and paver stone installations are beautiful, versatile, affordable, low maintenance, and enhance the value of your home.
