The Balanced Backyard
Recently, we brought our full team together for an exciting group exercise and brainstorming session to reflect on a holistic view of what makes up the best backyard that we can design and implement. Our insightful team began thinking about each element that makes a truly balanced backyard - a term we are defining as a yard that blends form, function, and purpose. We are excited to share for the first time, 8 distinct elements we identified that comprise a balanced backyard and informs our design process and or we approach every project here at RPK Landscape Architecture - our goal is to assist you with getting the most out of the space you have with these 8 synergistic and complementary elements.

As we wrap up 2021 we are reflecting on some of the major transitions and transformational projects that we hope to amplify and carry into the New Year. As you may have seen in previous blog and social media posts RPKLA (in addition to making vibrant outdoor places at your home) has started prioritizing efforts that impact the public realm and the human condition from places as nearby as your backyard to projects that have the power to shape neighborhoods.
