This modern farmhouse design was accented by decorative brick, double door entry and landscaping to mimic the prairie look as it is situated in the country on 5 acres. Palo Pinto County, Texas offers rolling terrain, hidden lakes and has been dubbed the start of "The Hill Country."

Access to the lake from this charming home required navigating a steep slope. db landscaping LLC was able to negotiate this terrain and provide comfortable lake access using oversized natural stone steps and landings that meander through native plant material. The upper patio space provides natural outdoor gathering space directly off the main living area and allows for a perched view of the lake beyond.

In the mountains outside of Golden, Colorado, a couple from Michigan fell in love with the terrain and a timeless log cabin. Removing the loft opened the space dramatically, and remodeling the kitchen and adjoining family room brought the cabin up to the expectations of our clients. This project was one of our more structurally challenging as we had to remove the loft and relocate the staircase to the lower level. The results were dramatic to say the least.

Tucked back into the hill behind the beach at Wategos Byron Bay, ‘The Wing House’ as it is known occupies a commanding position with great views out to Julian Rocks. The slope is steep and the house is positioned at the rear of the block so the garden needed to enhance the entrance experience; help absorb the house into the terrain and simplify the outlook from the house to the ocean. The structural gestures in the garden are subtle with emphasis on natural materials of local origin and plant material that was cohesive with the natural surrounds and requiring minimal maintenance.

The approach to the house is a walk through the garden on large flagstone slabs and stone steps to navigate the rolling terrain. The front door is framed by mortared stone columns. Dry stacked stone walls are linear to reflect the home’s architecture, while plantings are less structured to enhance and add to the surrounding natural landscape. Photo by www.crewsphotography.com

Inspiration for a timeless backyard deck remodel in Philadelphia

This was a very cool outdoor project. This house originally did not have a deck, but the homeowners didn’t want to keep going through the basement to go outside to the backyard. We designed a deck with an upcoming patio in mind. I designed the deck and a proposed patio idea, then we hooked up with my landscaper Pat with Earthly Possibilities to create the below the deck living. We used Timbertech Decking Terrain Series (Sandy Birch for the main color then accented it with Rustic Elm for the Picture Frame). To make below more useable, we installed Trex’s Rain Escape System then installed a ceiling with Azek’s PVC Ceiling. In the ceiling we had a few LED lights installed along with a ceiling fan. Pat then installed the patio pavers and custom firepit. This complete project turned out great so the homeowner can entertain and enjoy their new backyard this year!
