Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.Massive rock utilized in this project for both retaining walls and the waterfall in theme with the scale of the property and house.
Accent LandscapesWe have been able to work on a number of Parade Homes in Colorado Springs. The styles have changed over the years to include Traditional, Tuscan, Contemporary, and French Country. We strive to listen to our clients, and create outdoor living, planting, and recreation spaces to fit their needs and complement the architecture of the home. Here are four projects from 2008, 2015, and 2020.
Garden Lights Landscape and Pool Development Inc.We first installed this Garden 18 years ago, this is a fairly Minor refresh and upgrade but it came out amazingly. We updated the garden with a new DCS Grill, New lighting Power washing, pond cleaning and a few new plants. It is a great example of good landscaping should last many years -if properly maintained.
Just in Thyme Landscape DesignThe clients wanted to remove their pool & create a woodland garden from a hot, yard of Yuccas & Palms. We added several large trees & this meandering pondless stream surrounded be lush woodland plantings. Just the sound of the water makes you feel cooler!
Painted Fern Garden DesignA third of an acre garden that had barely changed from when the owners moved in 30 years ago and sadly, due to Honey Fungus, had lost a number of trees over the years with others also in poor health.
As with so many of our client’s gardens, the existing planting that was in the garden didn’t offer much interest beyond spring. My clients were looking for an opportunity to garden and make better use of their plot. They were looking to have an area for their grandchildren to play in and were interested in adding a child-friendly water feature.
The topography of the site provided a gentle drop in level running across the width of the garden. This enabled an obvious location to site a water rill with the upper level providing a viewpoint to position a bench. Carefully positioned new borders were then placed to offer some division to the garden, whilst still allowing a connection of the individual spaces.
In order to span the seasons with the planting we positioned a border half-way down the garden. The planting scheme here whilst looking good all year round, was designed specifically with winter in mind and was sited to be viewed from the kitchen window.
A group of four Stewartia pseudocamellia trees were planted to act as structural features surrounding the water rill and would offer interest from buds, flowers, bark and foliage, whilst also being Honey Fungus resistant.
Alderwood Landscape Architecture and ConstructionThe final design includes several "courtyard" and transitional spaces to accommodate the unique grading and provide several lounge spaces. Each of the home's many windows provides a different, picturesque view of the water feature focal point. The hot tub is purposefully close to the house for easy access, yet carefully positioned out of sight from the rest of the lounge areas so as to not draw attention away from the focal point.
Quaint seating spaces, a fire pit lounge area, and a covered dining space are accented by ornamental grasses, hydrangeas, and night lighting. Our clients are thrilled with how the final project made their oddly shaped yard now perfectly fit their landscape needs and desires!
Northwest Outdoor Lighting This immersive water feature experience is like nothing we’ve ever seen or lit before!
This large water feature circumstance is at least 40 feet wide with multiple waterfalls and viewing vignettes. Each sitting area provides a different experience. Some areas are purposefully darker and more intimate than others. You can walk from the patio area to the firepit, situated in the back corner. Then from the sitting area and back to the patio all while enjoying this beautiful experience. Never fearing that you'll fall in!
During their evening consultation, the homeowners were greatly involved. They even chose specific fixtures. With our design guidance, we included various color tones for high impact and minimal light glare. We used multiple uplights, path lights and submersible lights in a mixture of 2700 K (Kelvin). We also used the Sunset tone in the water feature to create a waterscape that was relaxing.
That's the beauty of hiring Northwest Outdoor Lighting. You can choose how involved you want to be. Our designers are flexible! We know we'll select the best products based on function and aesthetics. But having homeowners get involved in the design process means you'll love it that much more!
The extensive backyard lawn and trees were also lit with flush in-grade well lights. This makes mowing and lawn care so much easier. Highlighting the tall evergreens creates a safe environment for when the puppies need to go out at night. No scary animals are lurking in dark corners now. Path lights have been added to all the walkways.
After having the water feature unlit for years, the water feature has now become the homeowner’s pride and joy!
Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.Our client wanted a natural Rundle rock waterfall in the backyard and a Rundle flagstone patio & sitting area in the front. From there we connected the front to back utilizing large Rundle slab steps and completed the project with large Spruce trees and various other plantings in large beds with concrete edging to keep it low maintenance and at the same time having beautiful curb appeal!!
The Amendola Group, Inc.This clients vision was to convert a early 1900's stone cape with 10 plus acres in need of work into modernized weekend getaway with old world charm.
