Concept & Design
Identifying client needs and envisioning the solution.
Concept:
At Greenscape, every project begins with a detailed assessment of the property and a collaborative conversation. For the Devaney residence, our primary goal was to translate our client's aspirations into a cohesive plan that would enhance both the functionality and aesthetic appeal of their home. The family envisioned spaces that could accommodate large gatherings while maintaining a sense of tranquility and refinement. In order to do so, our design team partnered closely with them to shape a vision that integrated these priorities into a unified, high-end outdoor living experience.
Design:
Once the concept was established, our design experts crafted detailed 3D renderings to bring the vision to life. These plans included a wide range of outdoor living features, including patios, staircases, walkways, fire features, an outdoor kitchen, and a modern pool deck and hot tub, all tied together with thoughtful plantings and custom stonework. Every detail was selected with intention, ensuring durability and elegance for years to come. By uniting modern comforts with timeless design, the plan set the stage for a landscape that is as functional as it is breathtaking.

Build & Maintain
From vision to lasting legacy.
Build:
Once the design was finalized, Greenscape brought the Devaney residence to life with a meticulous balance of engineering and artistry. From a welcoming front porch adorned with intricate stone masonry and woodwork, to its luxurious pool deck situated amongst a hot tub, gazebo, and outdoor kitchen, each and every element was crafted with purpose and precision. Eye-catching stone walkways and staircases tie the all of the spaces together, while poolside fire features add both warmth and timeless character to enhance the property's visual elegance. Each component of this project reflects our commitment to both beauty and durability, ensuring the outdoor environment feels equally natural and enduring.
Maintain:
Beyond construction, Greenscape offers comprehensive maintenance services designed to keep landscapes thriving throughout the seasons. From weekly lawn mowing, trimming, fertilization, and mulching, to seasonal clean-ups, aeration, and weed control, every service is tailored to sustain both the beauty and health of outdoor environments. Shrub and tree care, precision pruning, and upkeep of landscape lighting ensure that plantings remain vibrant and spaces continue to shine, while snow removal extends usability during the winter months. Built on the same principles as Greenscape’s design and build work (attention to detail, quality materials, and long-term vision), these services protect the property’s value and preserve the artistry of its design for years to come.
