In Miramar, Florida, a family set out to convert their spacious but underutilized backyard into an inviting outdoor oasis. The family’s vision was clear: a cozy, multi-functional space that would serve as an extension of their indoor lifestyle. They wanted areas for meditation, exercise, gardening, and entertaining friends, with a design that prioritized both functionality and aesthetics.
Their large yard offered endless potential, but there were challenges. With a love for modern and naturalistic styles, the client was eager to blend practical features—like a pergola and garden beds—with design-forward touches such as concrete paths and lush plantings.
Before the transformation, the backyard was a blank slate—expansive but lacking the elements necessary for the family’s lifestyle. Though the yard's size was a positive feature, it was missing designated spaces to enjoy the outdoors in a purposeful way. One key request from the client was for a covered space where indoor activities like cooking and relaxing could transition seamlessly outdoors.
The yard had several challenges:
The client emphasized the importance of a phased plan to ensure each design element could be added at the right time and within budget. Key elements they wanted to incorporate included:
BACQYARD's design team crafted a modern yet inviting landscape plan that addressed the client’s needs for functionality, aesthetics, and seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The design was anchored by a large pergola that created a shaded social area while defining multiple zones within the space.
This new design allows the family to extend their indoor lifestyle outdoors, making the backyard a hub for activities such as cooking, gardening, and entertaining.
The design’s focus on modern, naturalistic elements reflects the client’s taste while creating a sophisticated yet inviting space.
This transformation showcases how thoughtful design can turn an ordinary backyard into a functional, beautiful outdoor living space. Each element was carefully selected to meet the family’s needs and fit their lifestyle, from the pergola for entertainment to the raised beds for gardening. With a phased plan in place, the family can add new elements over time while staying within budget.
The finished backyard offers everything the family envisioned—a place to relax, entertain, garden, and create memories. The transformation has not only enhanced their outdoor living but also increased the value of their home.
