Design and execution
Engineering expertise meets functional and aesthetic design.
When we arrived at this St. Catharines property, we encountered a sloped backyard featuring a deteriorating timber retaining wall. The backyard lacked a substantial amenity area. Our solution involved the construction of a substantial Corten steel retaining wall, which demanded expert engineering and meticulous execution due to the slope's challenging nature. This newly leveled space served as a canvas for the creation of a porcelain tile patio and the implementation of modern design elements.
Landscape and Masonry Features
Porcelain tile and Lion's Mane.
For the plantings, we selected contemporary textures and colours, incorporating plants in various shades of green, including boxwood and a beautiful lace lady tree. To maintain a modern look and feel throughout the space, we opted for sleek porcelain tile in the colour Porcea Greige. For the side walkway, we used the same tiles and installed Kota Black guillotined and precast steps to blend with the other elements.
To ensure a consistent color palette, we painted the existing deck black, bringing everything together seamlessly.
