Urban Oasis Landscape Design
A bubbling boulder water feature murmurs soothing sounds. Where once this was an inhospitable desert, the garden now it has a multitude of tranquil destinations to enjoy, serenaded by the calls of birds that have made their home there.

Dramatic plant textures, modern hardscaping and sharp angles enhanced this mid-century modern bungalow. Soft plants were chosen to contrast with the sharp angles of the pathways and hard edges of the MCM home, while providing all-season interest. Horizontal privacy screens wrap the front porch and create intimate garden spaces – some visible only from the street and some visible only from inside the home. The front yard is relatively small in size, but full of colorful texture.

Our client wanted to limit the amount of lawn on her property, so we designed large planting beds to fill the space while adding color, texture, and interest.

Brad’s vision for Black Oak Mountain Vineyards was to cultivate a sustainable, organic landscape that guests and visitors would be nurtured by. You’ll get a ‘feeling’ when you visit you won’t know quite what it is, but you won’t want to leave. Our team worked with Brad to see his vision come to life making Black Oak Mountain Vineyards a Couples Choice award winner! Relatively new, and pristine, with unusual desert mountain landscaping and architecture. We integrated an arid desertscape into the natural setting around this 150 acre estate property designing several ceremony sites and photo oportunities to capture the best moments of your life!

The approach to this backyard was to turn the orientation of the design to take attention away from the squareness of the space. A cozy conversation nook was designed with a raised planter behind.
Heffernan Landscape Design
Removed old, tired landscape, and a large, diseased tree was taken down in front, which opened up view to house. We put in a very linear planting to emphasize the low-slung lines of the house. Redo of the landing and sidewalk to a generous size, in Smoky Mountain cleft stone, with a little accent wall to anchor the coach light.
Also, repaved the atrium inside, with a bright Arctic Sandblast stone, to bring light to the dark interior.

A vertical garden or green wall is the perfect way to bring life into the home and lighten up an otherwise unusable space. This Vertical garden installation in a small atrium, was part of our modernist styled courtyard project. The natural stone and bold green foilage invoke the midcentury spirit.

K. Dakin Design won the 2018 CARE award from the Custom Builder and Remodeler Council of Denver for the reimagination of the landscape around this classic organic-modernist home designed by Charles Haertling. The landscape design is inspired by the original home and it’s materials, especially the distinct, clean lines of the architecture and the natural, stone veneer found on the house and landscape walls. The outlines of garden beds, a small patio and a water feature reiterate the home’s straight walls juxtaposed against rough, irregular stone facades and details. This sensitivity to the architecture is clearly seen in the triangular shapes balanced with curved forms.
The clients, a couple with busy lives, wanted a simple landscape with lawn for their dogs to fetch balls. The amenities they desired were a spa, vegetable beds, fire pit, and a water feature. They wanted to soften the tall, site walls with plant material. All the material, such as the discarded, stone veneer and left-over, flagstone paving was recycled into new edging around garden areas, new flagstone paths, and a water feature. The front entry walk was inspired by a walkway at Gunnar Asplund’s cemetary in Sweden. All plant material, aside from the turf, was low water, native or climate appropriate.
