🏡 Boost Your Curb Appeal: It’s Not Just About Plants 🏡 To truly enhance curb appeal, think beyond flowers and shrubs. Add dimension with stone pathways, landscape lighting, and well-designed driveways. These elements guide the eye and create a welcoming atmosphere. 🔍 Pro tip: Use materials like natural stone or brick to blend seamlessly with your home’s architecture. #CurbAppeal #LandscapeLighting #FirstImpressionsMatter #LandscapeArchitecture #LandscapeDesign

Our winning project in all its glory. 🌟 This pool scape in Vienna, Fairfax County, Virginia, features an impressive 20’x40’ swimming pool with spa/built in hot tub, and a sheer descent water feature at one end, providing a cascading effect from spa to water feature. The original idea was that the pool created a ‘flow’ effect from top to bottom, and hopefully you'll agree that the end result is simply stunning! #luxuryliving #luxurylivingspaces #homedesign #outdoordesign #landscapearchitect #landscapearchitecture #luxuryoutdoorspaces #homepooldesign #poolscape #homepool #homeswimmingpool #swimmingpooldesigns
