Whether I'm designing a landscape for a residential or commercial property, I often encounter large areas dominated by structural elements and hardscaping. To maintain balance, I focus on softening these spaces by introducing raised planting beds, planter gardens, and trees—enhancing the structure without overwhelming it. Consider incorporating plantings into: 🌱 Entryways 🌱 Transitional areas 🌱 Views 🌱 Low-shade areas 🌱 Large expanses of hardscaping

Here’s a sneak peek of what we’ve been up to lately 👉   This is a rear double- and single-storey extension project we were working on in Stocksbridge, Sheffield.   What did we do? 👇    The property was an existing bungalow, but due to the gradient in the client’s garden, we made a new lower ground floor level in the double and single storey. We then removed the existing roof and rebuilt a new roof over the property's old and new parts.     There’s no doubt about it: once we completed this structural package, the family gained much-needed extra space and added value to their property. What's more, it looks fantastic (if we do say so ourselves! 😂)      What do you think? Did we do a good job, or what?   #Construction #BuildingProject #HomeExtension #Renovations

Retaining walls are pivotal in landscaping, especially in areas like Brisbane, where sloped terrains are prevalent. These structures are not just functional in holding back soil to prevent erosion; they also play a significant role in transforming landscapes into usable spaces. By creating level terraces or preventing downhill soil movement, retaining walls can enhance a property’s utility and aesthetic appeal. https://lnkd.in/d9A-DRuN

The Truckee Meadows was once covered in seasonal wetlands and meadows. You can help recreate these natural features in your yard, use rainwater from your downspout to water your plants, and add visual interest to your yard.  Mini meadows (often called rain gardens) help capture water in your yard and clean out any pollutants that can come off your roof and sediments that can wash off your landscape. This keeps water and pollutants out of the storm drains and protects the Truckee River!

For property owners, inspiration can often come from the little things—watching a garden flourish, seeing a freshly painted room, or simply enjoying the peace of a well-kept space. It’s not just about maintaining a building; it’s about creating a home, a legacy, a reflection of what matters most. Every property tells a story, and the way it’s cared for speaks volumes about its owner. This inspiration reminds us that the foundation of a home is laid not just in concrete and bricks, but in the love and effort put into it every day. 🌳✨ #ClearTitleSolutions #CTS #JerryLynn #HomeBuildingTips
