This North Miami property began as a blank slate for a complete yard transformation on a modest, carefully prioritized budget. The project demonstrates how a North Miami landscape can support several distinct uses without losing a cohesive garden plan.
Project Brief
The goal was to make the front and back yards more attractive, functional and easier to maintain while reusing suitable existing materials wherever possible.
Design Priorities
• Improve curb appeal.
• Repurpose existing materials where practical.
• Transform the backyard into a more inviting garden.
• Level the ground beneath the pool area.
• Add low-maintenance, Florida native and drought-tolerant plants.
• Create a butterfly garden.
• Establish an enclosed dog zone.
• Use the hot, dry portion of the property for a cactus garden.
