Client goals
Greg and Ashley wanted a landscape that could thrive with their lifestyle. Away 8–10 months each year, they wanted their backyard to be scenic and beautiful, but practically zero maintenance.
Their vision was simple: create a space that honors the natural beauty of Western North Carolina while serving their lifestyle. When they are in town, they wanted a firepit area to gather with friends and truly enjoy their property, alongside the beautiful deck they'd built.


Drag to reveal the transformation
Our approach
We designed a landscape that works in harmony with nature: native plantings that thrive on their own and in the shade of the porch, thoughtful hardscaping, and a custom patio firepit that enhances both function and beauty. The result is a space that welcomes them home and serves their lifestyle, whether they've been away for weeks or months.
Plantings that look after themselves are the point of our low-maintenance landscape design — it has been the Natural Scapes staple since 1997.
