The Completed Summit Project
We hit some roadblocks with this one but the Summit project is finally complete and it turned out really nice! Check out this blog to see the final results.
The Summit project included a patio remodel, a pergola, a fully functional gardening space, a sitting area, plantings and two decks. We used all native plants and sustainably harvested wood, which really gave the space a nice feel. All of the planters in the garden were custom designed with the clients wants and needs in mind. The space was designed to feel functional and livable but we also wanted it to feel like you were on vacation as soon as you stepped out the back door.
We definitely learned some lessons with this one though. Like no matter how prepared you think you are for a project, you never really know what might come up in the process. We hit some snags when it came time to getting approved for permits, but we made it though and completed the project regardless. We had to adapt to the situation, sometimes submitting and resubmitting info that normally wouldn't have been requested, just to appease the township, which kept causing delays. This was frustrating for everyone involved but we finished as quickly as possible and luckily the end result really was highly functional pace that looks and feels great!
