The long-time homeowners of this property were frustrated with a backyard that was sloped, damp and unusable. They love entertaining and wanted to extend their capacity to host meals outside all year around. A full exterior renovation transformed their backyard into an outdoor living space that acts as an extension of the home’s interior (located adjacent to the kitchen). A louvered pergola operates with a sensor, opening and closing depending on the weather, to protect from both rain and sun. Framing the patio are stairs that access the raised garden while acting as a retaining wall to control the water from the lawn, with drainage added redirecting water flow. The backyard is now a stunning kitchen and lounge that the homeowners can enjoy all year around.
