Elevated Oasis

Set in the Highland Park neighborhood, this project overcomes the challenges of a high water table with an elevated design that prioritizes functionality and durability. Every plant was carefully selected for its ability to thrive with “wet feet,” ensuring resilience in this unique environment.

Steel edging cleanly defines the lawn from the gravel entry path, while artificial turf surrounding the pool provides a low-maintenance solution with a polished appearance. A custom powder-coated steel planter near the house adds a modern touch, creating a distinct planting area that blends seamlessly with the elevated structure.
