This is an example of a mid-sized transitional shade backyard brick landscaping in Chicago with a fire pit.

Twilight falls on our Wayah Cove project in Franklin, NC. This modern A-frame cabin features a striking dark exterior that allows the architecture to blend into its forested surroundings. The steeply pitched roofline frames the custom-angled windows, which serve a dual purpose: reflecting the lush canopy outdoors while radiating a warm, inviting glow from within. The draped Edison string lights add the perfect touch of cozy, modern mountain charm to the exterior approach.

This view of this Chicago rooftop deck from the guest bedroom. The cedar pergola is lit up at night underneath. On top of the pergola is live roof material which provide shade and beauty from above. The walls are sleek and contemporary using two three materials. Cedar, steel, and frosted acrylic panels. The modern rooftop is on a garage in wicker park. The decking on the rooftop is composite and built over a frame. Roof has irrigation system to water all plants. Bradley Foto, Chris Bradley
