The design includes elegant clean lines that mix reclaimed timber materials with timeless natural stone softened with garden boarders and well placed outdoor lighting for evening use. This backyard retreat is enjoyed all year long with summertime BBQs with friends and family in the outdoor kitchen and quite evenings around the stone fire pit.

Challenges<\/span><\/h2>Being a corner lot privacy from the street was an important design element.<\/span><\/p>\nMeeting backyard needs for a young family while designing for future use.
