The client, a woman who found herself living alone in a large house, wanted to convert its upper story to a rental apartment. After some thought, we realized it would more practical and profitable to produce two small apartments rather than a larger unit. Thus we proposed to apartments, divided along a middle, wet wall that was near water and gas pipes. Working with an extremely thight budget, we reduced mass and material to surface treatment, limiting the palette to black and white finishes. In contrast to this, the only "material" is concrete, used for countertops and as a replacement of wood and carpentry. We seeked to express the limited budget with austere aesthetics and direct, straitforward solutions.

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.
