Residential Design-Build – Family Retreat

This is the home of a large family with children ranging from toddlers to teens.  This client sought elements in their garden landscape that would appeal to the varying tastes of the children and parents.  

The existing, mature tree backdrop created a perfect park-like setting.  We were able to design a backyard family retreat that featured:  a swimming pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen, multiple patios and decks, putting green, and areas for a hammock and a trampoline.  Play and relaxation is extended well into the evening with the soft ambiance of outdoor lighting and fire pit.

To facilitate the efficient use of water, this project includes a “Smart” Weather-based irrigation controller, which makes daily watering adjustments based upon the slightest change in the weather.  Planned Environments also provides on-going maintenance to this client.

This project was completed and punctuated with a prominent lighted American flagpole, something the client had desired for a very long time.
