The clients enjoy the location and wooded setting of their home but needed to refresh their landscape. VDC developed a plan to define several outdoor spaces and give structure to the landscape.
A greeting court with a stone seat wall and rich planting was designed at the main entrance to the home to provide an outdoor space for greeting guests and facilitating lingering goodbyes. A larger deck was designed off of the kitchen along with a shade trellis and small kitched garden. The main lawn is approached through an antique gate, and features a stepping stone path leading to a gathering area around a fire pit.
