What Are Outdoor Living Spaces?

More than just a backyard—outdoor living spaces are functional, inviting environments designed for relaxation, entertainment, and everyday enjoyment. Think of them as extensions of your home's interior living areas.

Designed for How You Live

Outdoor living spaces transform underutilized backyards into purposeful areas where families gather, friends connect, and homeowners unwind. These are thoughtfully designed environments that integrate seating, dining, circulation, privacy, and aesthetic elements into cohesive outdoor experiences.

Unlike basic landscaping that focuses solely on plants and lawn care, outdoor living design creates functional zones with clear purposes—whether that's a shaded conversation area, an outdoor dining space for family meals, a terraced yard with multiple activity levels, or integrated walkways that improve flow and accessibility.

One Team, One Vision, Seamless Results

With our design-build approach, the team that designs your outdoor living space is the same team that builds it. This integration eliminates miscommunication, reduces delays, and ensures your vision translates perfectly from concept to completion.

Single Point of Contact

No need to coordinate between separate designers and contractors. We handle every phase, making the process smooth and stress-free.

Buildable Designs

Our designers understand construction realities, creating plans that are beautiful, functional, and feasible within your budget.

Faster Project Timelines

Design and construction phases overlap strategically, reducing overall project duration without sacrificing quality.

Better Budget Control

Real-time collaboration between design and construction teams prevents costly surprises and change orders.

Cohesive Results

Every element—from structural features to plantings—works together because they're planned and executed as an integrated whole.

Traditional Approach vs. Design-Build

Traditional Approach

  • Hire designer separately from contractor
  • Potential miscommunication between parties
  • Design may not account for construction realities
  • Longer timelines with sequential phases
  • Higher risk of budget overruns

Design-Build

  • Single team handles everything
  • Seamless communication & collaboration
  • Designs created with construction expertise
  • Faster completion with overlapping phases
  • Predictable budgets with fewer surprises

Outdoor Living Features We Create

Every outdoor living space is unique, tailored to your property's characteristics and your family's needs. Here are some of the elements we commonly design and build.

Seating & Lounging Areas

Comfortable zones for relaxation and conversation, incorporating built-in seating, privacy plantings, shade structures, and thoughtful layouts that encourage lingering outdoors.

Outdoor Dining Spaces

Dedicated areas for al fresco dining, from intimate spaces for family meals to expansive zones for entertaining guests, complete with proper surfaces and functional flow.

Fire Features & Gathering Zones

Fire pits and gathering areas that extend outdoor living into cooler seasons, creating cozy focal points where families and friends naturally congregate.

Walkways & Pathways

Thoughtfully designed circulation paths that connect different outdoor zones, improve accessibility, define spaces, and guide movement through your landscape.

Terraced & Multi-Level Yards

Strategic terracing that transforms sloped properties into usable outdoor living zones, creating distinct areas for different activities while managing elevation changes.

Integrated Landscape Features

Strategic plantings, privacy screens, shade trees, decorative borders, and natural elements that soften hardscapes and create visual interest throughout the space.

Outdoor Lighting Design

Thoughtful lighting plans that enhance safety, extend usability into evening hours, highlight key features, and create ambiance for outdoor entertainment.

Privacy & Screening Solutions

Strategic plantings, natural screens, and structural elements that create private, secluded outdoor spaces where you can relax without feeling exposed.

Retaining Walls & Borders

Functional and decorative walls that define spaces, manage elevation changes, prevent erosion, and add architectural interest to your outdoor environment.

Why Invest in Outdoor Living Design & Build?

The benefits go far beyond aesthetics—outdoor living spaces transform how you experience your home and property

Expand Your Living Space

Gain functional square footage without adding to your home's footprint. Outdoor living spaces effectively extend your home's usable area, creating additional "rooms" for everyday activities and special occasions.

Enhance Quality of Life

Spending time outdoors reduces stress, improves mental health, and strengthens family connections. Well-designed outdoor spaces encourage you to actually use your yard instead of viewing it through a window.

Increase Property Value

Professional outdoor living spaces are highly desirable features that significantly boost property value and appeal to buyers. Expect strong ROI—often 70-80% cost recovery, with some features returning 100% or more.

Better Entertaining Experience

Transform your backyard into the perfect venue for gatherings. Well-designed outdoor spaces naturally accommodate guests, provide comfortable seating, and create memorable experiences for hosts and visitors alike.

Improved Curb Appeal

Cohesive outdoor design creates striking first impressions and enhances your home's aesthetic from every angle. Professional design elevates your property's overall appearance and neighborhood presence.

Year-Round Enjoyment

With thoughtful design—including features like fire pits, covered areas, and strategic plantings—your outdoor space remains inviting across multiple seasons, maximizing your investment's usability.
