Outdoor Living in La Grange
Designed for La Grange homes and the way you live.
La Grange has some of the most character-rich homes in the western suburbs, including Victorian, Prairie and early 20th century houses in and around its historic districts. The outdoor space should feel like it was designed with the house, not borrowed from a catalog.
Lots in La Grange are often compact and close to neighbors, so every foot of the yard has to work. We design efficient layouts with built-in seating, compact outdoor kitchens and lighting that make the space feel larger and more private than it is.
What we plan for in La Grange
Drainage and grade are common issues in established La Grange yards. We design them into the plan from the start so the new patio, kitchen or pergola sheds water correctly and stays level for years.

Most compact yards can hold dining, a fire feature and a small outdoor kitchen when the layout is planned carefully. Our Stoltz and Watson projects show how.
