Bell Family Residence

Our clients wanted to enjoy their retirement by putting their green thumbs to work. As they set out to renovate this classic ranch style home, they called on us to design and install their new landscape. Along with creating a garden full of beautiful plants, they wanted a meet-and-greet patio at their front door and a horseshoe shaped driveway that would create elegant off-street parking for family and quests. Additionally, they wanted to create a beautiful frame for their front yard garden that would also softly screen their new outdoor living space. This garden design engages the neighbors and everyone else that passes by.

The initial stage of the design phase is to obtain a plat and contour map for making basic field notes.
A design assistant then measures the site to develop a base map.  The base map includes all significant features such as buildings, driveways, existing trees, bed and sod lines and the like.
The designer then hand sketches a preliminary bubble drawing, along with notes, for assistant to produce final draft.
The final draft is than rendered and illustrated for presentation to the customer.

The site before the project begins.
Once elevations are set, excavation begins for the front retaining wall.
The front wall and steps are built and the new driveway layout takes shape.
The driveway is formed, poured, finished, and backfilled.
The soil is prepared and hand-graded in preparation for new plantings.
New plants are set up according to the original design, then they are adjusted in the field as needed by the designer.
The plants have grown in for two years and filled the spaces.  The original vision of customer and designer comes to fruition.
