Private Dallas Area Residence
Southwest Fence & Deck
Custom built arbors are the first step in transforming your back yard into a useable area. A properly built arbor will provide the necessary retreat from the hot summer sun as well as creating a nice cozy feel in the evenings. Strategically placed lighting, fans, heaters and misters allow for year round use of your living area. Originally called summerhouses, cabanas have emerged as one of today’s most desired outdoor living requirements. We create structures that serve as great gathering places including grill stations, fireplaces and even that special place for the TV.

Exterior Worlds Landscaping & Design
We were contacted by a family named Pesek who lived near Memorial Drive on the West side of Houston. They lived in a stately home built in the late 1950’
Много лет назад они заключили контракт с местной компанией по установке старого бассейна в стиле лагуна, но со временем им это наскучило. Когда они связались с нами впервые, они хотели узнать, можем ли мы построить для них открытое помещение на дальнем конце бассейна. Мы назначили бесплатную консультацию в удобное для них время и приехали к ним домой, чтобы оценить участок и обсудить возможность создания зоны отдыха с костром на даче.
Compass Outdoor Design
When we first met with these clients, they provided us with a very specific idea of what they wanted to create. The limitations of that project came into play with city build line restrictions which meant modifying the space. In the end, the result is a nice area to lounge by the pool, enjoy coffee in the mornings, and grill with your friends and family. We built up the new stamped concrete to the height of the first steps of the pool deck and tied it all in, removing the flagstone. The outdoor kitchen area is the same as the full size selection on the fireplace and columns. Behind the kitchen is a small bar height sitting area and stone foot rest for guests. The tongue and groove ceiling ties in well with the dark stain cedar wrapped posts and beams to create a cozy rustic finish. We offset the fireplace towards the back to maximize walk space for furniture. The small bench walls flanking each side of the fireplace not only provide definition to the area but also allow for extra seating without adding furniture pieces. The ceiling heaters provide additional heat for those nights when you need to take the chill out of the air.
Redmond Outdoor Living and Property Makeover
Urban Oasis Design & Construction LLC
Our client wanted to create a fresh outdoor living space within their outdated backyard and to give a makeover to their entire property. The overall setting was a tremendous asset to the spaces — a large wetland area just behind their home, full of interesting birds and wildlife that the homeowner values. We designed and built a spacious covered outdoor living space as the backyard focal point. The kitchen and bar area feature a Hestan grill, kegerator and refrigerator along with ample counter space. This structure is heated by Infratech heaters for maximum all-season use. An array of six skylights allows light into the space and the adjacent windows. While the covered space is the focal point of the backyard, the entire property was redesigned to include a bluestone patio and pathway, dry creek bed, new planting, extensive low voltage outdoor lighting and a new entry monument. The design fits seamlessly among the existing mature trees and the backdrop of a beautiful wetland area beyond. The structure feels as if it has always been a part of the home.

TCP Custom Outdoor Living
The homeowner wanted a hill country style outdoor living space larger than their existing covered area. The main structure is now 280 sq ft with a 9-1/2 feet long kitchen complete with a grill, fridge & utensil drawers. The secondary structure is 144 sq ft with a gas fire pit lined with crushed glass. The table on the left in the main structure was a piece of granite the homeowner had and wanted it made into a table, so we made a wrought iron frame for it. There are more sentimental touches! The swing by the fire pit is a newly made replica of a swing the husband had made in wood shop in high school over 50 years ago. The flooring is stamped concrete in a wood bridge plank pattern.

Award Winning Outdoor Living Space
Daniels Design & Remodeling
The homeowners had a very large and beautiful meadow-like backyard, surrounded by full grown trees and unfortunately mosquitoes. To minimize mosquito exposure for them and their baby, they needed a screened porch to be able to enjoy meals and relax in the beautiful outdoors. They also wanted a large deck/patio area for outdoor family and friends entertaining. We constructed an amazing detached oasis: an enclosed screened porch structure with all stone masonry fireplace, an integrated composite deck surface, large flagstone patio, and 2 flagstone walkways, which is also outfitted with a TV, gas fireplace, ceiling fan, recessed and accent lighting.

The infra-red heater installed in the pavilion ceiling was purchased by the homeowners after construction had begun. The vaulted ceiling was modified on one side to receive the heating unit, while achieving an inconspicuous installation. The tongue-and-groove ceiling matches the same level of detail typically given to interior rooms.
What are some cool things for a man cave?
A man cave is a space where a man can relax, entertain, and pursue his hobbies and interests. There are many cool things that can be added to a man cave to make it a comfortable and entertaining space. Here are some ideas:
Home theater system: A large screen TV or projector with surround sound speakers can create a cinema-like experience.
Bar: A fully stocked bar with a beer tap, wine fridge, and spirits shelf is a classic addition to a man cave.
Sports memorabilia: Signed jerseys, sports posters, and other memorabilia can showcase a man’s favorite teams and players.
Gaming area: A gaming console, arcade machine, or pool table can provide hours of entertainment for friends and family.
Music system: A high-quality music system with a turntable, speakers, and vinyl records can add a retro feel to the space.
Workbench: A workbench or tool storage area can provide a place to work on hobbies and DIY projects.
Sports equipment: A basketball hoop, golf simulator, or dartboard can add an active element to the space.
Comfortable seating: A reclining sofa, comfortable chairs, or a beanbag can provide a cozy place to relax and watch TV or read a book.
Collectibles display: A display case or shelf for collectibles such as action figures, model cars, or comic books can add a personal touch to the space.
Outdoor access: A man cave with outdoor access, such as a patio or balcony, can provide fresh air and a place to grill or smoke meat.
