Nestled in West Seattle, this thoughtfully designed backyard balances beauty and functionality, creating a welcoming retreat for both adults and children to enjoy year-round.

A cozy fire pit serves as the heart of the space, inviting gatherings on cool evenings, while a pergola-covered lounge offers a shaded escape for relaxation. A sunken orchard doubles as a playful hideaway for children and a haven for local wildlife, enriched with no-mow meadow plants and fruit trees. Scattered throughout, edible herbs and berry bushes provide a hands-on gardening experience, bringing fresh flavors straight from the yard to the table.

For privacy and smart space management, a custom-designed fence ensures seclusion, while a cleverly integrated divider conceals a bike shed topped with a lush rooftop planter. Seamlessly blending relaxation, play, and sustainability, this versatile outdoor space transforms everyday moments into something special.
