Contemporary residential landscape design orchestrated to highlight the beautiful established trees on site.
This residential landscape thoughtfully harmonizes modern aesthetics with a family-centric and inviting atmosphere. With a core focus on fostering outdoor play and facilitating social interactions, the design skillfully employs comfortable materials and a rich variety of features. In the front yard, the landscape presents a formal and welcoming entryway marked by clean lines and defined edges, mirroring the sleek modern architecture of the house by La Rue Architects. This initial impression sets the tone for the property, creating an inviting environment that seamlessly complements the family’s lifestyle.
As one moves into the backyard, there is a deliberate transition towards more organic shapes and materials, which engenders an intimate and warm atmosphere, skillfully integrated with the interior design by Kelle Contine Interior Design. This strategic shift not only allows for flexibility in outdoor spaces but also ensures adaptability to changing family dynamics and the shifting seasons. The design is underpinned by a commitment to enhancing key views from both the interior and exterior, assuring that the landscape’s aesthetic impact is experienced and appreciated throughout the property. Ultimately, the landscape character serves as a harmonious extension of the home, providing a beautiful and functional outdoor haven that evolves in sync with the family’s ever-evolving needs and aspirations, all while preserving the property’s essential charm and allure, thanks to the seamless collaboration between La Rue Architects and Kelle Contine Interior Design.
