1. Bonaventure W Transformation
Project Overview
The Bonaventure W backyard project began with homeowners seeking an inviting, whole family–friendly oasis that seamlessly blends form, fun and function. Their initial goals included installing a patio, welcoming outdoor furniture, and a fire pit.
Several challenges emerged early on: uneven ground level, poor drainage, and a lack of coherent design flow. To address these, North Coral Landscaping introduced sleek concrete pavers, sculpted the terrain for water runoff, and chose native plants to support local ecosystems and reduce maintenance.
Before & After
Before, their outdoor space felt disconnected—a flat patch of grass with minimal purpose.
After, the space was transformed into a multi-zoned haven:
- Patio area with structured seating beneath a chic pergola, offering both shade and style.
- Surrounding native plants, grasses, and trees frame the design, offering visual interest and natural beauty.
- A warm fire pit anchors the space, making it useable well into the crisp Winnipeg evenings.
- Defined sleek walkways guide you through the space with elegance, with and Seating Areas arranged to maximize usability and comfort.
The result is a completely transformed outdoor space that exudes impressive style and versatility.
Client Feedback
Homeowners shared how much they now enjoy outdoor living: “Our yard feels like a resort. The fire pit brings everyone together. It’s more than a space—it’s a lifestyle.” With a thoughtful design and high-quality materials, we turned their vision into reality.
2. Coventry Project
Project Overview
The Coventry clients wanted a complete transformation that would elevate their curb appeal while making their underutilized yard more functional. The existing landscape featured outdated walkways, overgrown shrubs, and poor drainage—elements that detracted from the home’s style and limited outdoor usability.
The top priorities were: installing pavers to define pathways, add seating areas, improving water flow, and selecting drought‑friendly, sustainable plantings to reduce maintenance and environmental impact.
Before & After
Before, the space felt dull and dated.
After, the yard undergoes a magical makeover to a yard that blends beauty and comfort, perfect for summer days by the water.:
- An elegant custom-designed patio, featuring high-quality pavers, provides a durable and stylish surface for lounging, dining, and entertaining.
- A well-balanced combination of manicured grass, decorative gravel, and pavers creates a seamless transition between functional hardscaping elements and the lawn.
- Strategically placed lounge chairs and seating spaces allow for maximum comfort while soaking up the sun or enjoying poolside conversations.
- Lush Greenery and flower beds with vibrant hydrangeas, ornamental grasses, trees, and carefully selected plants add texture and colour, softening the hardscape elements and enhancing the natural surroundings.
Client Feedback
The homeowners expressed gratitude: “North Coral’s attention to detail is extraordinary. We love the new seating area and textures from the plants, to the patio—the whole design—they nailed it.” Indeed, their backyard now blends beauty and comfort, perfect for summer days by the pool.
3. Ruskin Refresh
Project Overview
For the Ruskin Refresh, the goal was clear: craft an elegant, functional outdoor space that could host family gatherings, that would feel like an extension of their home The existing patio was cramped, the garden uncoordinated, and seating space limited—so we tackled three key issues:
- Space utilization—extending patio zones for smooth flow.
- Landscaping overhaul—replacing patchy grass with purposeful plantings.
- Adding focal features, like a pergolas for ambience and a seating area for relaxation.
Before & After
Before, the yard lacked cohesion—just grass and a small concrete slab.
After, the transformation radiates charm:
- An expanded paver patio deck laid in a modern pattern provides a clean, durable foundation for outdoor gatherings, with added cozy outdoor furniture that invites lounging.
- A covered pergola defines a dining area, doubling space utility in all weather.
- Functional walkways and straight paths guide movement through the yard while adding symmetry and a sense of openness and visual interest.
- Sleek and defined garden beds with minimalist edging help frame the space while offering low-maintenance beauty and structure.
- Layered Planting Scheme, from ornamental grasses to flowering shrubs, the plant palette was carefully chosen for seasonal interest and a modern aesthetic.
The result is an impressive, multi-use backyard that is as beautiful as it is inviting, perfect for summer weekends or spring brunches.
Client Feedback
The family commented: “We’ve gained so much—from the pergolas shade to extra seating for our kids and their friends. This space has completely enhanced how we live outdoors.”
