Greenpoint, Brooklyn backyard

“For these new homeowners, the goal was to create a backyard that feels both modern and highly functional, echoing the spirit of their recent gut renovation. The design draws inspiration from modern and mid-century modern aesthetics, with clean geometric lines and low-maintenance materials for effortless upkeep. A central open space allows for children’s play, framed by plantings that add texture without overwhelming. A jacuzzi was integrated for relaxation, while the parlor-level metal deck was transformed into a dining and entertaining zone. Anchoring this space is a Gio Ponti–inspired tile wall, conceived as a bold art piece. The result is a sleek urban garden that seamlessly blends aesthetics, family living, and easy care.”
