Alcance

  • Reconfigure a compact backyard with a fire feature, prep counter, and seating zone.
  • Compare two lighting tiers for safety and nighttime ambiance.
  • Preserve clear walk paths between rear entry doors and patio zones.

Restricciones

  • Lot width required tight clearances around the fire feature.
  • Neighborhood lighting rules limited fixture spill near property lines.
  • Client wanted upgrade options without increasing total project footprint.

Proceso

  • Rendered both lighting tiers with identical camera framing for fast comparison.
  • Tested fire feature footprints with furniture spacing overlays.
  • Presented two prep counter layouts that respected utility access.

Resultado

  • Client selected the premium lighting package and approved the fire feature.
  • Scope stayed within footprint limits and city lighting guidance.
  • Contractor moved from concept to contract without extra site meetings.

Scope overview

The homeowner wanted a higher-end entertaining space in a narrow backyard. The design needed to feel open while adding a fire feature, compact prep zone, and usable lighting plan.

Highlights

  • Fire feature spacing checks that preserved circulation in a tight footprint.
  • Lighting tiers that made premium upgrades easy to evaluate.
  • Utility-aware kitchenette options to prevent field conflicts.

Execution notes

We built a compact-lot model with fixed property boundaries and produced option sets that held camera angles constant. That let the client compare upgrades on function and cost, not on changing viewpoints.
