Nakoma Mid Century Makeover

 
 
 

PROJECT TYPE: Hardscapes • Grading and Draingage

STATUS: Completed

LOCATION: Madison, WI


PROJECT OVERVIEW: A long neglected home with so much potential. Our clients initially hired us to remove the soil along the west foundation, as it was buried with feet of earth. The project necessitated a retaining wall and steps. Our design featured the use of CedarTone timbers and Weathered Fond du Lac Boulders. As they reached the completion of their interior renovation they looked to the yard. One primary concern was moving water away from the home. The design intention was to achieve a minimalist mid century look, featuring a dry stream bed with local fieldstone and Big John River Rock, Fond du Lac outcropping, native grasses and thoughtfully placed specimen evergreens.
