Building on a slope is one of Georgia’s greatest landscaping challenges. In this massive Buckhead backyard renovation, Atlanta Waterscapes turned a steep incline into a functional, multi-level paradise.
Tiered Living
Using hand-selected natural stone, we constructed a series of sweeping retaining walls that create distinct levels for gardening and lounging. The “face” of the stonework uses a mosaic pattern that provides a timeless, Old-World feel while providing the structural integrity needed to support the upper lawn.
Safety Meets Style
To connect the patio to the upper tiers, we installed wide stone steps with a unique feature: embedded architectural lighting. By tucking low-voltage LEDs directly into the stone risers, we ensured the backyard remains safe and breathtaking long after the sun goes down. This project is a testament to how professional stonework can turn “unusable” land into the most valuable part of a home.
