Excellence In Landscape Awards Project

deck have been transformed to bring new life to otherwise underused outdoor space. The outdoor spaces celebrate the Parisian architecture of the home while also creating an elegant oasis suitable for larger entertaining as well as intimate gatherings.

The garage deck has been programed into three elegant “outdoor rooms.” The garage deck supports a gorgeous dining area, conversational lounge space, and vegetated entry experience. The lattice screens, pergola, plantings and fireplace are key features to the garage deck. The lower patio supports a built-in grill and sculptural armillary to anchor the intimate lower lounge node.

Special attention was paid to the landscaping, furniture and lighting that are the finishes that truly bring this space to life. The French-inspired vision for this project was a unique treat to design and detail in the urban environment of Chicago.
