Design In Depth--Many of my clients ask me about the design process. Below is an example of a
landscape improvement I recently completed.
Second Phase
During the first year we built the retaining wall, patio, steps and completed hillside plantings. During the second
year, we built a landing and steps off the back doors to access the patio. Limitations at this phase were:
• Building over the basement entry while keeping head clearance per county ordinance
• Redoing the basement hand railing while allowing for deck step clearance above
• Working with chimney protrusion and vents per county ordinance
