This homeowner wanted to be able to create a beautiful spare bathroom for not only overnight guests, but their beautiful children to grow up with. They chose crystal cabinet pulls to compliment the beautiful white shaker cabinets and New Carrera counter tops. The spare bath room vanity even included a pull out step stool for the children. Downstairs we were able to bring the vanity, toilet cabinet, counter top, and built in shelves to match the spare bathroom. The client chose a beautiful hexagon tile for the walk-in shower accent wall and floor. Wood like flooring with gray tones pulled this color scheme perfectly!

This Park Hill landscape design transformed a Denver backyard into a private luxury retreat for a professional couple seeking an escape from busy city life. Griffith Designs provided custom landscape design and project installation coordination, developing a personalized outdoor environment that balances comfort, function, privacy and the homeowners’ vision for elevated everyday living. A premium StruXure pergola anchors the new outdoor living space, providing adaptable shade and protection for relaxing and entertaining. Beneath and around it, a Belgard paver patio creates a polished foundation, while an Ogee fire pit and pizza oven establish a distinctive gathering area for cooking, dining and enjoying evenings outdoors. The project also included a new garden walkway, thoughtfully selected plants, landscape boulders and privacy landscaping that softens the surroundings and gives the property a more secluded atmosphere. Custom landscape lighting adds warmth, highlights key features and allows the homeowners to enjoy their outdoor spaces well into the evening. To create a cohesive renovation, the existing side patio was repaired and integrated with the new landscape design. The completed Park Hill backyard combines premium outdoor amenities, natural materials and carefully planned planting to deliver a welcoming, sophisticated retreat—bringing resort-inspired outdoor living into the heart of Denver.
