What does your outdoor living space design service include?

We create a custom plan for how your backyard will look, feel, and function. That can include patios, decks, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, pools, spas, fire features, water features, grading, and more. We design around your goals, your property, and how you want to use the space.

Do you handle both the design and the construction?

Yes. We are a full-service design-build company, so we manage the project from the first concept through final construction. That means one team guides the process, keeps communication clear, and helps avoid the confusion that can happen when design and construction are split between different companies.

What kinds of projects are the best fit for Earth Artisans?

We focus on larger, high-end custom outdoor living projects rather than small upkeep jobs. If you want a complete backyard transformation, indoor-outdoor integration, or a multi-feature space built around your lifestyle, we are a strong fit. We do not provide routine lawn care or maintenance services.

How much experience do you bring to a project?

Our team brings 40 years of combined hands-on experience in outdoor living design and construction. Earth Artisans was founded in 2023, and we built this company to deliver detailed, well-managed projects with personal service. We are also licensed and insured for added peace of mind.

How do you make sure the final design fits my home and lifestyle?

We start with your vision and listen closely to how you want to live in the space. Then we design around your property, style, and priorities, using natural materials and smart layout choices. Our goal is a space that feels like it belongs with your home and works for everyday life.

How do I get started with a project?

The best first step is to schedule an initial design consultation. We will talk through your ideas, your property, and the scope of the project, then help you understand the next steps. If you are ready to invest in a custom outdoor living space, we would love to start the conversation.

Outdoor Living Space Design in Cary, NC

At Earth Artisans, outdoor living space design is where great projects begin. We help homeowners turn ordinary backyards into custom spaces built for relaxing, entertaining, cooking, and spending more time outside. Our focus is on larger, high-end design-build projects, so every plan is shaped around the way you want to live and use your property.

We start by listening. During your initial design consultation, we talk through your goals, style, budget, and how you want the space to function. Some clients want a quiet retreat with natural stone, water, and soft lighting. Others want a complete entertainment area with a patio, pergola, outdoor kitchen, fire feature, pool, or spa. We design around your home, your lot, and your daily life so the finished space feels natural and connected.

Our design process looks at both beauty and performance. We plan layout, traffic flow, elevation changes, drainage, materials, and how each feature works together. We also consider indoor-outdoor integration, so your new space feels like a true extension of your home. Depending on the project, designs may include patios, seating walls, steps, retaining features, shade structures, decks, fencing, garden elements, grading, and custom gathering areas.

Because we are a full-service design-build company, we do more than create ideas on paper. Our team guides you through planning, material selections, construction details, and project management from start to finish. With 40 years of combined experience, a skilled 4-person team, and a trusted network of resources, we know how to turn a clear design vision into a lasting outdoor environment built with care. We are licensed and insured, provide free estimates, and we do not stop until the client is satisfied.

If you want more than a basic backyard upgrade, we are here to help you create something personal, functional, and built to last. Schedule your initial design consultation with Earth Artisans and let’s start planning your custom outdoor living space.

We make high-end outdoor living design clear and organized from the first conversation to the final plan. Our process is built to turn your ideas into a custom space that fits your home, property, and the way you live.

Discovery Consultation & Site Review

We start with an initial design consultation to learn how you want to use the space, review your goals, style, and budget, and walk the property to study grading, drainage, access, and existing features. This upfront planning helps us shape a realistic concept for a larger custom outdoor living project.

Custom Concept & Design Development

Next, we create a tailored outdoor living design that may include patios, shade structures, kitchens, fire features, pools, stonework, and indoor-outdoor flow elements. We refine the layout, materials, and functionality with your feedback over the next few weeks so the design feels personal, cohesive, and build-ready.

Final Plans & Build-Ready Roadmap

Once the design is approved, we prepare the final scope, material direction, and project roadmap so construction can move forward with confidence. We guide you through the details, answer questions clearly, and do not stop until you feel fully comfortable with the plan and excited for the next phase.
