The ALLEN COURT PROJECT
Introducing the Allen Court project. The development of this project has been over a period of 5 years. Now it’s time for the big reveal!
We began by redesigning and installing a new driveway. The existing driveway was an out-of-date asphalt surface that created massive amounts of runoff during rainstorms. The new drive is made with pavers coupled with river rock and a steel edge as the finishing touch. The driveway is now 100% permeable and eliminates any excess stormwater going into the municipal system to cause flooding downstream. We have created a highly natural garden for the front yard by using a series of native-ish plants. The garden started around the perimeter of the house but overtime has invaded the side yards and replacing almost all of the lawn. The plantings provide a symphony of colors and textures throughout the year. The siding chosen for the house is sustainability harvested Cumaru, a hardwood with a beautiful array of tonal variety. The Cumaru wraps around the entire house and faces the entire soffit. Have a look at our projects page for more details on this project.
