North Flushing, Queens, NY

Think this landscape design looks great in 3D? You should see it in person! The team at Designing With Elements was proud to help these North Flushing, NY homeowners design a new façade and back patio that would help them enjoy outdoor gatherings at their newly finished home. Their new back yard features an outdoor fireplace, kitchen and cabana. With a fabulous covered structure for the patio, their family and friends can enjoy having barbecues, watching TV, or sitting by the fireplace outside without the sun beating down on them.
