City lots, designedlike retreats

In Charlotte's established neighborhoods, the challenge is rarely space — it is privacy and flow. We use careful screening, level changes and vertical elements to make a modest yard feel like its own world, and we plan sight lines so the kitchen, seating and fire feature work together instead of competing.

We work across the city and the surrounding areas — Myers Park, Dilworth, Plaza Midwood, South End and the newer builds out toward Ballantyne and Steele Creek. Whether it is a tight urban courtyard or a larger suburban lot, the same discipline applies: solve the ground first, then build something worth looking at.
