Creating environments that encourage our families to spend more time outdoors is important in today’s hi-tech world. Designed for the 2014 Chicago Flower and Garden show, this display garden captures a playful sensibility well-suited for any family to enjoy. The clean, modern lines and carefully planned spaces of this 50’ by 50’ garden form an enticing setting to simply unplug. Working within a very limited area, the design organizes a bio pool with sundeck, a spillover water feature and lounge area, and a gravel dining terrace with a built-in fireplace and shade tree canopy. Unlike traditional pools, our bio pool utilizes aquatic plants, beneficial bacteria, and microbes, rather than harsh chemicals, to filter the water. Impurities and excess nutrients are drawn out of the water naturally, creating a much healthier swimming environment. A native plant palette is incorporated throughout the garden with shade trees, ornamentals, native forbs, and perennials in an emergent spring landscape. We hope this exciting design will encourage green inspiration for visitors, whether they have a tight city lot or a larger suburban property.

Our clients desired a landscape that complimented their contemporary, energy-efficient dream house. Reflecting the existing landscape, we added a large grove of vertical birches, underplanted with groundcovers, adjacent to the house and garage. A paving pattern using 48” square bluestone tiles move you from the front of the house through the breezeway, and onto the patio in the back where it is occasionally interrupted by trees, boulders, and groundcovers.

The quaking aspen provide upper level screening, but still allow light through to the patio. Photography by Larry Huene Photography.
