Plan For Shade Before You Build
Outdoor comfort is an important part of backyard planning in Woodland Hills. Patio covers, seating orientation, landscaping, pool areas, kitchens, lounges, and circulation should respond to sun exposure and how the property is used throughout the day.
Shade should be integrated into the overall layout, rather than treated as an addition after the major outdoor areas have already been built.
Built Around Woodland Hills Properties
Established Woodland Hills properties can include pools, mature landscaping, older hardscape, walls, slopes, drainage conditions, privacy concerns, and outdoor areas that were built at different times. A complete plan can bring those elements together.
Pools & Outdoor Living
Pool areas should connect naturally with lounges, shade, kitchens, fire features, turf, lighting, landscape, and circulation.
Shade & Heat Planning
Patio covers, planting, covered seating, pool areas, and outdoor rooms can be planned around sun exposure and comfortable daily use.
Slopes, Drainage & Retaining
Grades can affect drainage, retaining conditions, hardscape, stairs, pool decks, utilities, landscape, and construction sequencing.
Privacy & Mature Landscaping
Existing trees, walls, fences, planting areas, neighboring conditions, lighting, and sightlines should be considered as part of the complete design.
Design The Property As One Environment
Pools, pavers, landscaping, turf, kitchens, fire features, lighting, and arrival areas should work together visually and functionally.
The 3 Zone Systemâ„¢
Our proprietary planning framework organizes the property around how homeowners arrive, live, entertain, relax, and use their outdoor environment.
Arrival Zoneâ„¢
Driveways, gates, entry paths, lighting, landscape framing, privacy, and the first impression of the property.
Living Zoneâ„¢
Outdoor kitchens, dining areas, lounges, patio covers, fire features, shade, and everyday gathering areas.
Activity Zoneâ„¢
Pools, spas, turf, recreation, putting greens, wellness features, play areas, and active entertainment.
The Outdoor Experience Starts At The Front
The driveway, walkways, entry landscape, lighting, gates, walls, planting, and approach to the home establish the first impression of the property.
The Arrival Zoneâ„¢ helps connect front yard improvements with the larger outdoor design, creating continuity from the street through the backyard.

Artificial turf can provide a clean, usable green area for family activities, pets, recreation, and landscape contrast without relying on a traditional lawn.
Turf works best when drainage, hardscape, planting, pathways, lighting, and surrounding outdoor areas are planned together.
