Outdoor Living in Glencoe
Designed for Glencoe homes and the way you live.
Glencoe is home to some of the most architecturally significant houses on the North Shore, on lots shaped by ravines, mature trees and the lakefront. Outdoor living here has to respect that architecture and that landscape.
We design Glencoe outdoor spaces around the home’s design language, its views and its setting: terraces and outdoor rooms that extend the architecture, outdoor kitchens sized for real entertaining, and lighting that makes the landscape part of the evening.
What we plan for in Glencoe
Ravine and wooded lots require careful planning for grade, drainage and tree protection. We study the site in detail before designing so the new space is built to last.
