This beautiful curved driveway is part of an environmentally sensitive system to reduce erosion, by reducing storm water runoff and to retain rainwater on site. Made of tumbled concrete pavers it blends nicely with the beautiful natural rock retaining walls. Plantings are between naturalistic and formal to transition from architecture to the wilderness. This is a water wise landscape using drip irrigation and channeled drainage from the land.

Imagineer remodeling: sustainable landscape design mulching your garden beds, installing permeable paving, planting drought-tolerant trees and perennials. Upgrading to sustainable landscaping is not only a good choice for the environment, it can also save you money on utility expenses and through sustainable landscaping rebates. The amount of maintenance required for your yard will also be reduced dramatically.

The outdoor lounge overlooks the full landscape full of trails, trees, and a broad meadow with colorful flower and tree borders. The patio floor consists of "Barn Plank" pavers, a cast concrete paver with wood grain pattern. This material provides a durable and solid paving surface with natural appearance.

Not all beauty comes from symmetry. Some of the most timeless designs emerge from organic movement, irregular shapes, and subtle playfulness. That is the artistry behind Techo-Bloc’s Antika™ paver. Antika™ is a permeable, cobble-style paver crafted to mimic natural stone in its most whimsical form. Its rounded edges, varying shapes, and interlocking design bring softness and flow to driveways, walkways, or patios that deserve something unique. Available in multiple blended color options, it complements both rustic and contemporary homes with elegance and ease. Imagine pulling into your driveway at dusk, the shadows dancing on each stone, feeling less like a surface and more like a passage to something special. Antika™ does not just pave a way; it sets a tone of calm, warmth, and grounded sophistication. Choosing Antika™ means choosing water permeability, durability, and an aesthetic that resists the rigid and celebrates the natural. It is a driveway that breathes with the earth and invites design to be both functional and freeing. Let’s explore how this material can bring your outdoor story to life.

The owners had recently purchased this house with the desire to totally renovate the interior and exterior. Great location and views were very attractive. Our task was to make it fully functional, beautiful and fun. Parking and impervious space were two of our biggest challenges. Driveway paving was re-designed using both permeable paving stones and ribbon layouts to allow for on-site drainage and a warm look. The main outdoor living room was off the back of the house with a Bluestone terrace using Brownstone inlay to create separate spaces. The terrace walls were finished with the same stone used on the house with a clean Stainless Steel railing system, for great visibility. A large kitchen was built for entertaining with plenty of counter space. The terrace overlooks a wonderful pond with just the right fountain. The plantings were designed to bring color, texture, fragrance and screening in just the right combinations. LED landscape lighting and magnificent Longshadow planters completed the gardens with charm and elegance.

This zealous gardener was tired of her pool taking up so much space in her landscape. She asked me for ideas. The answer was simple. Since her garden brings her so much joy, I proposed adding more garden rooms to experience. We removed the large expansive pool and replaced it with a small reflecting pond that doubles as the pool. This allowed us to create 4 new garden spaces. We replaced all concrete pavers with natural PA flagstone. The traditional square lawn provides elements of simplicity, elegance and classical style while creating a new play space for the grand kids. The pergola creates depth and a great focal point from the loggia. We illuminated all the walkways and garden rooms with Escort Lighting. One of the most fun transformations was converting the spa to a fish pond. The pond provides just enough sound to drain out all neighborhood activities. In the front, we created a new permeable brick paving parking area. The parking area was designed to keep visitors from venturing to the back parking. We chose the permeable brick pavers to collect runoff that is becoming more of a problem in the neighborhood. Our final piece to this property was to come up with a unique solution creating additional privacy while minimizing root damage to the existing plant material. Our client was looking for a permanent solution that required little to no maintenance. Masonry walls were out due to the necessary footers. We looked at fence options. Wood and plastics were out, so we created post out of steel “I” beams and setting concrete lintels in between the lintels. It was perfect. This has to be one of my favorite projects to design and implement of my 25 year experience.
