Hi, my name is Mike Christensen with Peak One Builders and today we’re going to talk about outdoor living. In Arizona a lot of our clients are looking to transform their backyard into a paradise or a backyard oasis. We really try to incorporate what the house looks like inside and out and try to create that same feeling throughout the backyard.  Whether it’s working with a horse property, and trying to tie in different roof lines, or different types of features that really make it feel like the property, including the house the backyard- or whatever it is, we try to incorporate it so it all just flows together and it’s just one continuous feel for you as you walk through your house to the outside- we want to make it enjoyable outside as much as it is inside. And, we also work with smaller properties such as condominiums, where you have a very small backyard and we’re able to incorporate those barbecue grills and fountains and fire pits to really create the same feel, just on a smaller scale.

Our team will come out to your house and do an analysis of your backyard, and work with the designer or not working (sic) with the designer; the process takes usually about 3 to 4 weeks to come up with the total plan. From that point, you know, we’ve got to get a permit and then start construction. Construction on a typical backyard, including a pool, is usually about 8 weeks, depending on how elaborate the process is and what exactly you’re looking to do.

A lot of people are looking for outdoor barbecues with refrigerators, maybe some (sic) maybe a smoker, fire pits, fireplaces are a big one- landscaping, obviously tying it together. Looking for a very simple square or rectangular pool; more of a minimalistic design where they’re using a zero scape type landscaping meaning the plants don’t require a lot of water, very minimal plants and trees. And then the other design is a lot of what you see behind me here is more of a kidney bean shape which is probably the most common type of design that people end up going with, you know with the small waterfall, large waterfall and more of, you know, the typical plantings that you see around here, combining some of the natural desert plants along with some of the better flowering trees and plants that we have around here.

A successful overall backyard really comes into play when you’re incorporating different types of materials such as pavers, travertine, different types of plants and creating those different levels really is what separates a basic simple pool with a flat backyard into something more of like what you see behind me here. And that’s really where our landscape architect or designers are really going to come into play and help come up with a really good plan so that we can build it properly and it’s going to look great when it’s done.

This typical backyard ended with the pavers transitioning right at where the roofline ended and dropped off about 5 or 6 feet down. We came in and imported dirt, created different elevations around the whole entire backyard which really adds to the beauty of the overall project creating different elevations and different levels- really creating different zones that people like to go in and sit. We create fire pits and fountains and fireplaces that really kind of designate separate areas where people can go off and enjoy the space. This is what really creates a great space and really more of an enjoyable overall experience for the customer.
