Wanless Park

When the deck started to fail, the clients decided that it was an ideal time to revitalize the entire landscape!
Multiple doors led from the house to an ample backyard. Due to the open nature of this corner lot home, lack of privacy was a concern that needed to be addressed. Rather than setting the outdoor entertaining areas on the deck level, we opted to create a haven at ground level. We introduced new ornamental trees along the fence and deck to provide visual separation from the street in all seasons, and the result is a more human scale with a leafy green surround.

Priorities

  • Access to both raised doors
  • More greenery
  • Destinations within the landscape
  • Separate rooms
  • Simple and linear design
  • Develop more privacy
