A space drawn from the land and your life.
We begin with how you want to use the outdoors, then shape the structure and materials around your home and its setting.
Design for the life you want outside
Custom estates near the greenbelt and golf courses make the relationship between architecture, landscape, and outdoor gathering especially important. Some neighborhoods also have architectural review requirements.
A careful plan for a considered setting
On a property near the greenbelt or golf course, the outdoor space should sit comfortably with the architecture and the landscape. A clear plan for materials, sightlines, and the proposed structure also helps when an architectural review is required. The first step is to learn the rules for your particular address.
What the site may ask of the design
Start with the path from the house, the day’s sun, the terrain, and the view you want to keep. A cover, kitchen, pergola, or deck should answer those conditions together. A flat courtyard and an elevated wooded lot need different plans.
Local planning matters
The applicable review depends on the property and its association. Confirm the requirements for your address, including city jurisdiction and any architectural review, before finalizing a plan.
Choose the right starting point
If the space feels exposed, begin with shade. If you want people to gather around meals, begin with the kitchen and seating. If the grade separates you from the yard, begin with access and the deck. Then connect the pieces into one plan.
