Modern Projects

Modern Backyard Landscape - Fox Point, WI

Our clients had decorated the inside of their Fox Point, WI home in a modern style so they asked us to create a landscape design that also had that flavor. For the front yard our goal was to downplay the driveway across the front of the house. The new concrete front walk directs visitors to the front door and creates an area for passengers to exit their vehicles easily off the driveway. A bluestone pad off the front walk is meant for a future bench.

The design also included the backyard where the existing patio space was too small for entertaining, so we designed a new expanded concrete patio with room for grilling, dining and lounging. The bluestone dining area has a custom cedar pergola overhead with built-in downlighting. For phase 1, our clients chose to not include the fire pit area we had designed. Beach pebble runnels help to visually separate the outdoor rooms of the patio and slate chip in some of the plant beds adds a Zen aspect to the design. 

Landscape lighting was designed for the entire project as shown in the evening photos. We also designed the stone and cedar address marker at the end of the driveway.

Modern Landscape Makeover - Fox Point, WI

Contemporary Patio & Hot Tub - Lake Forest

Our client's contemporary home in Lake Forest, Illinois had a tired landscape. For the front of the home we worked around the existing bluestone walk and raised stone planters. New shrubs and perennials were added and the planting beds were re-shaped. A linear group of columnar, purple beech anchor the right side of the front yard.

The existing deck at our client's home was failing and too small for real entertaining. We designed an expanded new bluestone patio with an edge that mimics the cut outs of the front walk. The columnar, purple beech are repeated, screening the main patio from the new hot tub area. A gas fire bowl area was designed and is visually separated from the rest of the patio by 'Skyracer' molinia grasses. Bluestone stepping stones connect the main patio to an existing gazebo and the hot tub patio. Slate chip mulch borders the home in conjunction with the large roof overhangs. 

The existing pond on the property was too rustic and out of control for our client's tastes. To make it feel more like it was part of the house and surrounding landscape, we went in a slightly Asian direction creating a cantilevered deck over the water and a slate chip Zen garden around it. Skyracer grasses with beach pebble mulch are repeated from the patio plantings along with the bluestone steppers. We proposed an arc-shaped Corten steel water feature to replace the existing rubble rock waterfall.

Our client wanted more privacy along the south lot line in conjunction with their new patio so we designed in shade tolerant shrubs and trees to fill in the existing treeline including hemlocks for year round screening. We also designed new plantings along the driveway to improve the visual approach to the home.

Contemporary New Home Landscape - Caledonia

Genesis Architecture designed this custom home they called Modern Villa. We were asked to join the project team and had the pleasure of working with principal Ken Dahlin, AIA on the design of the landscape. One focal point of the landscape is a "designed prairie" at the base of the dramatic, angled retaining wall at the front entry to the home. This area contrasts with the manicured lawn that surrounds the home and also functions to collect water via a dry creek bed. 

The landscape becomes more linear with layered plantings at the brick privacy wall that shields the patio from the street. Built into this wall is an outdoor grill. We designed the full range bluestone patio and the surrounding plantings. To collect water from the roof above, a custom trench drain with natural patina was detailed within the bluestone. Simple groupings of boxwood and ornamental grasses set in slate chip mulch provide the balance of the plantings around the base of the home. The boundary of the property has sweeping areas of natural prairie providing a border around the lawn. Native trees and shrubs were planted throughout the property to provide habitat for birds and insects while also adding privacy.

Modern Front Yard - Shorewood

Even though our client's home is more traditional, they prefer the clean lines of California style. A new front walk and angled plant beds give this Shorewood front yard a modern feel. The backyard space was extremely limited but our clients still wanted room for dining, a hot tub and a linear gas fire. Turning the grid of the entire patio and plant beds at an angle to the house makes the space feel much larger than it is. Backyard scheduled for completion in spring of 2020.

Modern Backyard Patio - Mesa, AZ

This newly constructed home in Mesa, Arizona offered us a blank slate and also the opportunity for us to design with an entirely new palette of plants. After researching plants approved by the HOA and discussions with our client, we narrowed down the mix of native woody plants and succulents and set to work on the plans. For the front yard we kept the design more minimalistic, as the space was limited. The backyard is where we had some fun, splitting the area into three zones. The foreground zone is similar to the front landscape with more open space and less plants. The second zone wraps around most of the back of the property and the east side. The idea was a lusher, denser planting that helps to hide the ubiquitous concrete block privacy wall. The third zone required some buy-in from our client, as we proposed an enclosed area where a rescued desert tortoise could live. Our clients loved the idea and they are looking forward to the day that they can provide a home for this native, endangered reptile.

Modern New Home Front Landscape - Glen Carbon, IL

The conceptual landscape design for this newly built home in Glen Carbon, Illinois capitalizes on its modern style and adds year-round plant interest.

A linear approach was used to expand the design around the existing concrete front walk. Moments of circular geometry were added to embrace an existing round patio and incorporate it into the rest of the plan. Retaining walls help to reinforce the linearity of the design while providing support along the sloped site. The existing swimming pool and concrete patio in the back yard are enhanced with planting beds that add both privacy and color all year long.

Contemporary Craftsman Patio + Fire Bowl - Brookfield

Eclectic Craftsman
2015 Gold Award - Best Specialty Wall Project in Residential Design and Wisconsin Masonry Alliance Excellence in Hardscape Project of the Year

2012 Gold Award for Excellence in Residential Landscape Design and Construction - Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association

This modern interpretation of a craftsman styled home was the inspiration for the eclectic and contemporary landscape design.  Low garden walls which match the house veneer were incorporated to offer a sense of enclosure and add a bold architectural element to define the public and semi-private spaces. 

Upon entering into the back yard through the home’s breezeway, the stage is set with the signature element of the design; a theatrical 5’ diameter fire pit and split fieldstone radial bench.  The 100 year old cast iron fire pit began its life as a syrup kettle in which sugar cane was melted and still shows the foundry mark from Georgia.  

To bridge the change in levels between the upper and lower terrace, a stunning set of convex and concave limestone steps integrate with patterned bluestone to create the dramatic landing.    

A restrained palette of perennials and ornamental grasses combined with native shrub and tree species adds refinement and seclusion to the entire property.  Additional details include bluestone medallions set in concrete, extensive landscape lighting, and a well engineered irrigation system.  




Contemporary Craftsman Landscape - Brookfield, WI

Modern Front Yard - Champaign, IL

Conceptual landscape design for this recently built modern home in Champaign, IL. Our clients wanted the landscape to reflect the modern, clean lines of the home. The front walk and planters were designed by the home builder so our focus was on the plantings for the front yard.

We designed a concrete patio with inlaid bluestone runnels that visually divide the spaces including dining and fire bowl areas. Screening plantings were incorporated along the back lot line for privacy.

Scheduled for installation in 2022.

Modern Farmhouse Front Walk - Mequon, WI

Our clients were building this new modern farmhouse in Mequon, Wisconsin after moving from Chicago. With it being new construction, we has a blank slate when it came to designing this whole yard landscape. We created a master plan that could be implemented in phases, allowing our clients some economic flexibility after building their new home.

For the entrance to the property, we designed natural stone piers to go with the existing fence on the property. House numbers and lighting help guests to find the right house. Our clients wanted a modern landscape to go with the home so the design theme was based on rectalinear geometry. Concrete was chosen for all the paved areas for a modern aesthetic with beach pebble runnels. Natural stone garden walls were designed to frame the front landscaping. To emphasize the entrance to this modern farmhouse, a courtyard was designed with a panel of full range bluestone surrounded by an inlay of beach pebbles. Rectalinear plant beds carry the modern theme around the landscape with many varieties of ornamental grasses and long blooming perennials. Boxwoods and hydrangeas make up the bulk of the shrubs.

Concrete with beach pebble runnels was used for the main patio space in the backyard. There are areas for grilling, dining and lounging. Our clients asked for a modern pergola in tune with the rest of the landscape. The cedar pergola is stained almost black making a dramatic statement. Our clients love birch trees so a planting bed with a linear group of river birch cuts into the concrete patio to help define two separate spaces. Birch were also planted as part of the front portion of the design.

With a partial exposure on the home on the east side of the property, the grade change necessitated that we landscape the slope with plant beds, outcropping stone and stone steps. A bluestone stepper path connects the patio to the steps leading down to another area of the backyard. On the west side of the property, we designed a separate fire pit patio. Unlike the rest of the paved areas in this landscape which are concrete, the fire pit patio is paved in full range natural bluestone. Rectangular plant beds and bluestone steppers pinwheel around the space. A radial cut, natural stone fire pit sits within a cut out in the bluestone, surrounded by beach pebbles. Low voltage, landscape lighting with custom colored fixtures completes the design.

Modern Farmhouse Landscape - Mequon, WI

Modern Swimming Pool - Mequon, WI

Our clients were in the process of building their modern home in Mequon, Wisconsin when they contacted us to design the new landscape. The conceptual landscape for the front yard includes an angled concrete front walk with bluestone inlays leading to a guest parking pad. Full range bluestone steppers create a secondary path across the front of the home. Along with new plantings and low voltage landscape lighting, a gravel Zen garden was placed to the right of the front porch.

For the conceptual backyard landscape design, angled concrete and bluestone patio spaces were clustered around the swimming pool. A fire pit was located on the long axis of the pool. We also designed a natural stone outdoor kitchen island with grill and pizza oven. New plantings and low voltage landscape lighting round out the balance of the design.

Installation to be completed in early 2022. Check back for photos!

Modern Front Yard Landscape - Racine

Our client was in the middle of remodeling the inside and exterior of his minimalist home in Racine when his architect contacted us to see if we'd be interested in designing a landscape that would be appropriate for the home. Arguably austere but also dramatic, with an open view to Lake Michigan through the middle of the home, it is referred to as the Glass House. With a new deck added to the front of the home as part of the remodel, our task was to connect it to the driveway on the north side. The whole design was influenced by the linear architecture of the home, so a simple concrete walk was designed, with overlapping geometry in relation to the deck. Slate chip mulch was used around the deck for an Asian garden feel, and it is carried around the house as a maintenance strip to aid in mowing the lawn. A long boxwood hedge was designed as a green fence, giving our client some privacy on the deck. Japanese tree lilacs anchor both ends of the front walk. An additional boxwood hedge was added on the north side of the home to screen utilities, and three serviceberry trees were added to replace a large, diseased tree that had been removed. Additional trees were incorporated into the design that our client may implement in the next few years.

Modern Front Landscape - Belgium, WI

This design was especially fun to work on as it centered on a newly constructed modern home in Belgium, Wisconsin. Our clients wanted something that would enhance and compliment the architecture of their custom designed home. Our design includes the new front walk along with the prairie inspired plantings and landscape lighting.

For the backyard portion of the design we created new upper and lower patios and plantings that coordinate with the front beds for a cohesive plant palette. Bluestone steppers connect the various concrete paved areas.

For the site, our clients wanted to keep at least 50% of the site as natural vegetation. We designed the boundaries for mowed lawn and included  screening plantings for privacy. Native trees and shrubs were used throughout the overall site.

Before photos included. Phase one scheduled for spring of 2022.

Modern New Home Landscape - Belgium, WI

Contemporary Landscape - Brookfield, WI

Failing concrete block retaining walls were the impetus for this landscape renovation. Our client wanted a more contemporary landscape to fit better with the architecture of the home. With the driveway dominating the front of the home, we wanted to improve the landscaping on both sides. A linear group of river birch dominate the right side of the front yard with a mosaic of multiple varieties of carex as groundcover. New retaining walls of cut lannon stone frame the landscape on this side of the property. 

To the left of the drive is an expanded planting of mixed perennials and ornamental grasses. Our clients asked for a unique vegetable garden so we designed a series of custom cut Corten steel planters of different diameters and heights. A circle of fine decorative gravel surrounds the planters, defining the space. Lannon outcropping stone was used for additional retaining walls to the left of the garage, with cut stone steps, creating new access to the rest of the property from the front yard. Low voltage landscape lighting enhances the project at night.

Modern Backyard and Pool - New Berlin

Our client wanted a modern design for the landscape around his new home in New Berlin, WI. They specifically asked for a front yard patio space so we created a modern courtyard. Concrete was used for its clean look in the larger paved areas while bluestone was used to highlight the walk itself. Pebble runnels divide the courtyard space visually, while angled bedlines make it clear this is not your typical suburban landscape.

We carried the theme of concrete and bluestone for the paving into the backyard design. A grilling patio was created off the upper patio doors with stone steps leading down to the future swimming pool. A lower level patio of bluestone is next to the house with additional bluestone seating areas around the pool. The angles in the design also allowed for the pool to fit on the flatter part of the existing backyard grade.

Mid-Century Vibe Concrete Patio - Bayside

Mid-Century Vibe

2022 Silver Award Residential Design - Association of Professional Landscape Designers

Originally a 1950’s Cape Cod ranch, our client’s home was transformed into this contemporary interpretation of a mid-century modern home. Regretfully, the landscape did not receive the same amount of attention as the home did during the major remodel. 

Our clients understood that the new landscape should reflect a mid-century modern aesthetic and asked that a little bit of Asian flavor be added to the mix.
For the front of the home, we focused on creating a visual statement with a new, segmented bluestone front walk. It replaced a plain, curved path that had no relationship to the architecture of the home. Bold, but simply shaped planting beds contain a limited palette of plants and colors to suit our clients’ tastes. Areas of various types of stone mulch reflect an Asian style adding texture and contrast with the plants.

The backyard was a blank canvas for us as the original patio had been removed during the remodel of the home. Our client requested areas for dining, lounging, and for hanging out around a fire pit. They also wanted enough lawn left for their young daughter to play in, which was a challenge while keeping the patio spaces functional. Colored concrete was chosen as the patio material in keeping with the mid-century modern theme and coordinates well with the color of the cultured stone on the home. Beach pebble inlays help define the spaces visually, while bluestone steppers and slate chip mulch are repeated materials from the front yard. Many of the same plants from the front are also repeated in the backyard, with the addition of some shade loving plants around the patio and lot perimeter for privacy.

Contemporary Hillside Landscape - West Bend, WI

Previous clients of ours contacted us to design an updated landscape for the contemporary lake home in West Bend, Wisconsin that they purchased. The existing landscape had not been maintained and lacked summer color. For the streetside of the home, we designed a new plant bed to visually offset the large driveway. In this bed 'Autumn Gold' ginkgo trees cut into a linear grouping of 'Moorflame' ornamental grasses. A stepping stone path of bluestone set in slate chip mulch improved the connection between the front and back of the home.

On the lakeside of the property we worked around the existing limestone steps and path that wound their way down the hillside to the lake. We expanded and repaired the flagstone landings and the stone patio lakeside. Shade perennials and shrubs flank both sides of the stone path about halfway down to the lake., The plantings then transition to mostly sun perennials, flowering shrubs and spreading junipers to help with erosion on the hillside.

Modern Front Yard - Whitefish Bay, WI

Our clients bought a recently constructed modern home on the east side of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The builder had put in minimal planting beds with marginal plants. We were hired to create a landscape design for the entire property while keeping the existing front walk and deck. For the front yard we designed expanded planting beds that played off the architecture of the home. Our design also corrected the front patio area which was not installed properly.

Much like the front yard, the builder had put in minimal planting beds with marginal plants in the backyard. Our design added bluestone steppers to connect the front yard to the existing composite deck through a gate in the fence. All new plantings with columnar trees for privacy screening were included  along with low voltage landscape lighting.

Modern Concrete Front Walk - Mequon

Stylish Sanctuary
2017 Gold Award for Excellence in Residential Landscape Design and Construction - Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association 

Our client, a former architect in Poland, had set a high bar for the landscape around her new home. After she made many design decisions that impacted both the interior and exterior of the home, she wanted to work with someone who spoke the same design language. When she found out the owner of our firm had a degree in architecture, she hired us. Her only design guidance for us was to have the landscape reflect her contemporary tastes, not the more traditional flavor of her neighborhood.

We chose concrete as the front walk material for its clean, modern look. The inner and outer panels are centered on the front door, while the three middle panels are offset. Beach pebble runnels separate the panels in the walk. Bold, continuously blooming color is provided by the many perennials, while the grasses and shrubs add structure to the front planting beds. 

Long-blooming perennials and flowering shrubs flank both sides of the house, connecting front yard to back yard. Entertaining space was important for our client, including dining, lounging and fire pit areas.  A cast concrete gas fire bowl was chosen to fit the contemporary feel our client so wanted, while the paving around the fire bowl is concrete with beach pebble base to mimic the front walk.  The simply detailed pergola overhead adds a vertical element to the patio, and further defines the outdoor dining room. Low voltage, LED lighting highlights the landscaping throughout.

Modern New Home Landscape - Mequon, WI

Modern Front Landscape - Juneau, WI

Our client is a retired architect who designed his dream lake home with his wife, also an architect. We were tasked with designing a simple modern landscape that would coordinate well with the architecture of the home while also fitting with the natural setting of being on a lake. 

This conceptual landscape design includes privacy plantings along the street of river birch trees in a stone mulch bed. For the driveway side of the home, a new front walk and Zen-like garden is placed directly in front of the large glass on the home. We also designed a new stone patio on the lake side of the home, with stepping stone path centered on our client's office which has a great view of the lake. Lakeside is a modern fire pit area with bluestone steppers and another privacy screen of birch trees.

Modern Prairie Front Landscape - New Berlin

Modern Prairie
2019 Gold Award Residential Design - Association of Professional Landscape Designers
2018 Gold Award for Excellence in Residential Landscape Design and Construction - Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association

The existing landscape around our clients' prairie-style home was dull and dated. It had originally been intended to have the flavor of an Asian garden, but it did not succeed on that point. The Prairie architecture of the home was still conducive to that style, so we were tasked with blending Asian, Prairie and the Mid-Century aesthetic that the husband preferred. His wife had one simple request – keep the flowering perennials simple and minimal. 

We focused first on creating a new front walk in a combination of concrete and bluestone. The square of irregular bluestone was placed on axis with the front door while also sitting on the diagonal with the Prairie-style urn which was the only element retained from the existing landscape. A new concrete patio was added to the right of the front porch for informal seating. Full range bluestone square steppers were placed along the edge of the driveway within slate chip mulch, to enhance accessibility for passengers exiting cars on the drive. A simplified palette of flowering perennials, grasses and shrubs fill the planting beds surrounding the new walk and patio. Per our client’s request, there are no red, yellow or orange flowers. Serviceberry trees add a vertical element and privacy around the new front patio and a Firebird crabapple anchors the front bed.

As we were close to completing the design, our client made one last request: could we include a sentinel stone somewhere in the landscape? After doing research on the significance of sentinel stones in Asian gardens, we set about to find the perfect stone. We visited multiple quarries until we found just the right stone, sending our client’s photos from the quarry for their approval.  We suggested in turn that the stone might offer the perfect location for house numbers. We chose the house number plaque's shape, finish and font, and presented it to our client and they loved it. Once installed, the stone really was the finishing touch for this revitalized landscape. We were even asked to help choose new paint colors for the home, and the result is shown here.

Contemporary Lake Home Front Landscape - Oostburg, WI

This was the second landscape design we did for this client. They were in the process of building a new home on Lake Michigan and had worked with an architect who we had partnered with before. So it was a perfect match for us to design a landscape around their new contemporary home in Oostburg, Wisconsin. 

The architect had already specified Corten steel raised planters at the home, so we carried that linear theme through to the rest of the landscape. Minimal plantings were used around the home as it sits on a wooded lot. Lawn areas were also kept to a minimum, On the lakeside of the home, we let Lake Michigan be the focus with simple plantings of boxwood and a low ornamental grass at wither corner of the home. Rectangular stepping stones form a path around the home under its large roof overhangs.

Contemporary Lakeside Patio - Glendale

2013 Gold Award for Excellence in Residential Landscape Design and Construction - Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association

This project focused on renovating the dated, sloped backyard whose main feature was a spring fed lake.  We designed a radial themed bluestone and brick terrace that centered on a circular dining area which appears to overhang the hillside toward the water.

The spatial layout, nickel finished landscape lighting, and a custom fabricated aluminum and stainless steel cable railing enhanced the contemporary feel the client desired.  Massed plantings reinforce the architectural nature of the design.  

Symmetrical radial lannon stone steps flanking a split-faced granite retaining wall lead down to a reshaped beach.  The beach then directs you to a lakeshore woodland nature walk and seating on the eastern peninsula perfect for watching the sunset to the tune of crooning frogs.    

The homeowner’s now have a beautiful, relaxing oasis to enjoy every day with nature as the star performer.  


Contemporary Lakeside Patio - Glendale, WI

Modern Front Landscape - Mequon

For this new, modern home our conceptual landscape design coordinates with the architecture of the home and the clean lines that our client requested. A patterned bluestone outdoor foyer connects the driveway to the large front porch. Simple, linear plantings with blocks of color are the basis for the plant palette. Our client also asked for a Japanese maple which we tucked into the corner off the porch.

Even though our client's new home sat on a wooded lot, they asked us to add plantings for privacy and interest along the edge of the natural area. Spruce trees add winter interest, along with red-twig dogwood. Forsythia and serviceberry add spring color along the driveway.

For the back yard portion of the design, we did not need to design a patio space, as the home already had an immense covered deck off the back of the house. We did want to create exit points off the deck with stepping stones of bluestone. The grid of steppers in the center mimic the footprint of the bluestone foyer from the front yard. Slate chip mulch forms a border around the entire house under the large roof overhangs. A small bluestone grilling patio was added off the corner of the home.

Due to the heavy shade of the surrounding woods, we added hemlocks to provide privacy for our clients year-round. Understory trees with great fall color were also interspersed within the natural areas.

I had the pleasure of working with Haus Design + Build on renovating my childhood home that hadn’t been touched up since it was built in the 50’s. I’m quite environmentally minded, so I knew the appliances and electrical elements needed an update. I also knew it needed a bit of a refresh aesthetically, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I had a consultation with them about my hazy ideas and they were able to understand my tastes and needs after just one chat! The whole construction process was so streamlined and thorough that my fears of things going awry totally vanished after the first few weeks. Working with Haus DB has got to be my greatest investment, I highly recommend their services.
