Why Summer Backyard Design Matters
Your backyard is a place for outdoor dinners, morning coffee, playtime with the kids, or quiet evenings under the stars. A well-designed backyard extends your living space and enhances the way you enjoy your home, especially in the summer months.

Top Backyard Features to Consider This Summer
1. Outdoor Kitchens & Dining Areas
Outdoor kitchens make entertaining effortless and fun. With built-in grills, sinks, refrigerators, and custom countertops, you can host unforgettable gatherings with everything you need within reach.
2. Pergolas & Shade Structures
Add architectural interest and a break from the sun with a custom pergola or shade sail. They create cozy nooks for relaxing or reading, and they’re perfect for adding string lights for evening ambiance.
3. Fire Pits & Fireplaces
Extend the season with a built-in fire pit or fireplace. Great for roasting marshmallows, storytelling, or simply enjoying the cool Oregon nights with loved ones.
4. Custom Landscaping
Your yard should feel like a natural extension of your home. We help create cohesive, low-maintenance landscaping plans that are both visually appealing and sustainable, perfect for Central Oregon’s climate.
5. Smart Outdoor Lighting
Lighting enhances safety, extends the usability of your yard into the evening, and adds atmosphere. From path lights to lighting trees and garden features, the right lighting can completely transform your space.
