Client goals
The homeowners wanted to transform their small backyard into a beautiful, functional outdoor living space where they could comfortably entertain family and friends — an inviting landscape that maximized every square foot without feeling crowded, balancing gathering areas with open space for everyday enjoyment.
Just as important, they wanted a yard that worked for their energetic dog. Their pup loves to explore — and has a habit of chewing on just about every plant she encounters — so pet-safe materials and non-toxic plants were a top priority, along with open lawn to run and play.


Drag to reveal the transformation
Our approach
We designed a backyard that makes the most of the available space — inviting areas for entertaining while preserving valuable open lawn for their dog to enjoy. Every planting was selected with both beauty and safety in mind, using pet-friendly, non-toxic varieties so the homeowners can enjoy a lush landscape without worrying about their curious pup. By carefully balancing hardscape, planting beds, and open space, we created an outdoor environment that feels spacious, welcoming, and perfectly suited to both relaxing with guests and everyday life with their four-legged family member.
