LIBERMAN LIVING ROOM

This new build construction in West Seattle came with contractor plantings in the front yard and a clean slate in the backyard. We worked closely with our client to design a space that feels like a natural extension of their living room. Poured concrete walls and a floating ipe wood bench create a cozy seating nook around a custom concrete propane fire pit. Blue ribbons of Mexican pebble provide contrast and continuity in the concrete patios.

Steel edging defines the border garden and delineates an eco clover lawn for furry family members and lawn game enthusiasts to enjoy. The young garden is a mix of native and ornamental plants that will thrive under the neighboring Douglas fir tree and provide year round interest in this partly shady area. We also added a few special plants to the front yard to spice up the contractor plantings. Our favorite addition is an Eastern Hemlock ‘Golden Duke’ (Tsuga Canandensis) that will delight the neighborhood for decades to come.
