A Small Suburban Backyard Landscape Design

Ready to transform that boring backyard into the landscape of your dreams? This family had lots of ideas, a modest budget, solid DIY skills–and no idea where to begin. That’s where Home Outside came in. Our remote landscape designers showed these suburban homeowners how to turn a narrow “bowling alley” of a backyard into a beautiful garden with something for everyone in the family to enjoy: play space for two young children, a small dining terrace, a pool of lawn for sunbathing and stargazing, a bench for reading in the shade, and flower beds filled with colorful annuals and perennials. The homeowners installed the garden themselves, and now they have a backyard they can’t wait to spend time in.
