This family sought an
inviting outdoor space that would complement their home and renovation
project. They wanted a patio in which to entertain, while allowing
plenty of open space for a spontaneous ball game. They wanted
to minimize some views and enhance others.
“Initially,
I was skeptical of engaging a designer. We signed on a
contractor to open up our house and integrate our dining room and
family room with the backyard. We had sketches and plans and were
gearing up to install a large patio with landing along with French
doors. Sandy (my wife) pushed for a designer. We
agreed to engage Susan.
We
spent tens of thousands of dollars on the actual construction and the
contractor did a wonderful job. I could not be happier with his team's
performance. Hands down, though, the money spent on Susan's
services was by far the best money we spent on the entire
project. With Susan, the results took on a completely
different look and feel and the project moved from a series of tasks to
an integrated whole.”
