Our Work
Our focus was to revitalize the front of this Tudor style home located in Edina, Minnesota. We accomplished this by designing a new front entry featuring a two tiered concrete koi pond, concrete and flagstone entry walk, new turnaround driveway and other amenities. For the entry walk we used a combination curb and walk to provide a clear transition between the pedestrian walk and the vehicular drive. The primary entry walk uses mortared flagstone with a generous width, the secondary drop-off walk is narrow and made of broom finished concrete, the tertiary area of the walk surrounding the lower pool of the koi pond uses dry laid limestone. The hierarchy of the walk and its different areas are delineated through the use of different materials and dimensions. Another walk not shown in the picture uses broom finish concrete stepping pads. These pads connect the pedestrian garage door to the broom finished drop-off walk.
