We installed a 1500 sq. ft. Ipe deck to connect the pool to the house and make the yard feel cohesive. We added a custom steel & cable fence/gate, pool equipment cover, hillside plantings and low- water no mow lawn to complete the look.

This roof garden design in Manhattan's West Village features a custom-built wood deck with matching planters made out of ipe, a hardwood with a 30-year life expectancy. We used very thin wood planks on the planter facades for a very contemporary effect. We also planted bamboo on one side to provide some much needed privacy from a neighboring terrace.

This award-winning two-level deck resides in Chester, NJ. The flooring is blind-fastened Ipe hardwood. The railing is a combination of cedar and our own custom made Azek post wraps. The upper deck features plenty of space for eating and lounging. The lower deck features a hot tub with plenty of seating space around it. A small privacy wall on two sides adds to the intimate ambiance. Low voltage lights and custom gates finish the look of this wonderful deck.

Design ideas for a small traditional partial sun backyard stone landscaping in DC Metro for spring.

San Rafael Overview: This garden project began with the demolition of an existing pool and decks cantilevered over a hillside. The garden was originally a Japanese-themed garden retreat and free-form shaped pool. While the client wanted to update and replace many elements, they sought to keep the free-form characteristics of the existing design and repurpose existing materials. BK Landscape Design created a new garden with revetment walls and steps to a succulent garden with salvaged boulders from the pool and pool coping. We built a colored concrete path to access a new wood trellis constructed on the center-line view from the master bedroom. A combination of Bay friendly, native and evergreen plantings were chosen for the planting palette. The overhaul of the yard included low-voltage lighting and minimal drainage. A new wood deck replaced the existing one at the entrance as well as a deck off of the master bedroom that was also constructed from repurposed materials. The style mimics the architectural detail of the mansard roof and simple horizontal wood siding of the house. After removing a juniper (as required by the San Rafael Fire Department within the Wildland-Urban interface) we designed and developed a full front-yard planting plan. All plants are Bay-Friendly, native, and irrigated with a more efficient in-line drip irrigation system to minimize water use. Low-voltage lighting and minimal drainage were also part of the overhaul of the front yard redesign.
