Why You Need An Exterior Designer

If you want a gorgeous kitchen – 

✔︎  Something that will fit all your needs  
✔︎  Meshes with your home’s interior and your design style 
✔︎  You’ll actually enjoy using because it’s functional and stunning 

Which makes more sense?   

Hiring a cabinet maker to design your dream kitchen. 

 Or… 

Working with an interior designer. 

 🤔 

 The answer is pretty simple, right?  

You’d work with an interior designer

Sure, a cabinet maker has worked on a ton of kitchens and could probably come up with something based on all the designs he or she has built and installed. 

But, if you want creativity and expertise, you’d hire a designer.  

Just like you would… 

❌  Not hire a tile installer to design your dream spa-feel bathroom or hire a painter to design your ultra-relaxing, hotel-inspired bedroom. 

✅ You’d hire an interior designer. 

👉  When it comes to the exterior of your home, and your yard, the same is true. You would… 

❌  Not hire a contractor or a pool installer to design your dream yard. 

✅ You’d hire an exterior designer. 

And that’s exactly why Foxterra Design focuses on luxury exterior and pool design.   

We create custom designs for our clients – backed by our design expertise and our experience working as contractors.

It’s the best of both worlds because you end up with a world-class design that’s everything you wanted for your yard. 

And, you know that a contractor will actually be able to build the design in real life.  

If you want your yard to… 

✨  Fit your design style and seamlessly blend indoor/outdoor living 

✨  Have that ‘wow’ factor that will make your yard stand out 

✨  Include stunning features and high-end details only an experienced exterior designer would think of 

…then click the button below to book your free Design Consultation with our team of expert exterior designers. We can’t wait to start exploring the potential in your yard.

Can A Yard Be Both Relaxing And Family-Friendly?

We took this yard from before – when it was just a dirt lot – and transformed it into a timeless, family-friendly private resort that’s super luxurious, but still fun for the kids.

Can Your Backyard Match Your Interior Design?

This yard is what indoor/outdoor living is all about. We took a 900K budget & used our client’s interior design as inspiration to completely transform their yard. 

Can You Have A Luxury Yard In A Colder Climate? 

We designed this space to take advantage of this Colorado home’s gorgeous mountain views – and made sure it’s 4-season friendly. It’s proof that you can get a high-end, elevated look for your yard even if you live in a colder climate.

Designing An Outdoor Space You Can Enjoy All Year

Summer’s officially over.

But for our clients, Pumpkin Spice season doesn’t have to be spent indoors…

Because they have an outdoor space they can enjoy all year.

SUNDAY BBQ 💥🏈

This might be the most opulent sunken seating area we’ve ever created. It’s seriously cozy and accented by a sleek rain curtain, modern design, and all the lavish details you’d find at the most luxurious 5-star resorts.

BONFIRE TIME 🔥🍫

Is there anything better than a bonfire with your family (aside from ooey, gooey s’mores)? We love designing fire features for our clients because they create space for the entire family to spend time together.

GET COMPETITIVE 🏀⛳

Fall is the perfect time to spend a Saturday afternoon shooting hoops or sinking putts. When a client asks for a sports court or a putting green, we know their kids are going to spend a ton of time out there!

MOVIE NIGHT 🍿

An outdoor movie night under the stars? Yes, please! For many of our clients, adding an entertainment area to their yard is a must—so they can cozy up and watch Netflix outside. 

SOAK IN THE SPA 🌿🛁

When the weather’s too cold for a swim in the pool, the spa is still a great option—esepcially if it’s designed in an enclosed or covered area!

Before & After: See How We Turned A Dirt Yard Into An Ultra Relaxing Oasis

What if you want a modern makeover for your outdoor space, but also want it to match your home’s architecture and style?

This yard is proof that you can get an ultra-luxurious transformation and have it seamlessly fit with the existing exterior.

We call this yard “The Reflective.”

First, because of the stunning glass-sided pool that reflects the elegant yard and gorgeous landscape from the exterior.

But also because this space is a reflection of our client’s existing home. We really wanted to create a private resort that feels like an escape for our client—whether they’re inside looking out, or spending time enjoying their backyard.

Keep scrolling to see the before and after transformation and all the details that make this yard one of our favorites.

GLASS SIDED POOL

This glass-sided pool is not only breathtaking, but it’s also so much fun for kids to enjoy. They can swim by and wave, or look through to see the fire. Anytime we incorporate a pool with a glass accent, we love adding fire in front of it. The illusion it creates is magical.

HIDDEN SPA

Spa meets fountain in this design. We created a wow-factor space for our clients to soak and unwind—complete with stunning tile work and water flutes that add to this yard’s ambiance. But the best part is the spa is totally hidden unless you know what you’re looking for!

FLOATING DAYBEDS

These daybeds are a dream come true for our client—who wanted to be able to lounge in style. We can’t decide which we’re more excited to enjoy—the daybeds or the swings!
