WORKFLOW

1. CONCEPT →  IMAGES TO HELP WITH VISUALIZATION

2. 2D LAYOUT → FUNCTIONAL MASTER PLAN

3. REQUIREMENTS → HOA / CITY CHECKLIST (WATER WISE / WUI OR FIRE RESILIENT / COOLING)

4. INSTALLATION → CUSTOM BUILD

5. RESILIENCE GUIDE →  RECOMMENDED SEASONAL GUIDELINES (411 FOR YOUR MAINT CONTRACTORS)

CONCEPT

DESIGN

NEW MATERIALS = STRIP STONE PLANTER, ROCK, EDGING EXISTING = 4’ PLANTERS, ROCK, LAWN

HOA

    Garden space allotted = 108 sq ft per property

    ✅ PROPOSED BACKYARD TOTAL = 68sq ft

√ 36 sq ft = proposed long raised bed 18ft L x 2ft W at north wall

        √ 32 sq ft = 2 existing square planter boxes 4x4 at NW corner

√ Meets HOA space allotted

          FRONT YARD = ?

✅ Because the Haskins Station neighborhood is surrounded by developed roads, highways, and residential infrastructure rather than dense, continuous wild land timber or wild brush fields, it does NOT fall into a high-intensity Class 2 WUI zone.

√ Instead, the strict 0–5 foot planter bed and landscaping

compliance rules are driven by two factors:

1. Arvada's Unified Base Code: Arvada applies standard baseline ignition-resistant material rules to properties near transit lines or public open tracts to mitigate spot fires.

2. HOA / Metropolitan District Guidelines: High-density townhome and patio home neighborhoods in Arvada commonly build stricter noncombustible landscape requirements (like rock borders and banned juniper plants) directly into their own neighborhood Design Review Guidelines. This is done to prevent a fire from easily jumping from one closely spaced building to the next, regardless of what the city's macro-level WUI map says.

SITE 

 ✅ CURRENT RAISED BED MEASUREMENTS

               (a) Box 1 = 6x5ft x 12”h  (Far Left section)

               (b) Box 2 = 6x5ft x 8”h    (Center section)

               (c) Box 3 = 6x5ft x 4”h     (Far Right section**)

✅ LOCATION + MATERIAL

              √ PLACEMENT = UN ATTACHED at north wall of house 

√ MATERIALS = STRIP STONE recommended near house footprint to comply with fire safety protocol

PLAN A

HEALTHY LOW MAINTENANCE ECO SYSTEM

Site Smart Planting

We select native and naturalized plants and plant communities to establish a healthy micro climate, build seasonal immunity, reduce water usage and maintenance long term, and boost native pollinator and root eco systems.

SAVE WITH

SMART USE + LOW WATER SOLUTIONS

Responsible Water Use

Our designs use low water emission, capture water on site to increase moisture retention, balance dispersal for effective use, recharge groundwater, reduce flooding, or keep pollutants out of local waterways.

LOCAL SOURCES

NURSERIES, GROWERS, MATERIAL SUPPLY

Locally Sourced community led

We recommend sourcing your plants and materials through local organizations and businesses to support community business and resources, reduce carbon footprint and keep your economy and ecology strong.

RE - INTRODUCING

BIODIVERISTY + POLLINATORS

restoring micro systems + Habitat

We promote native and keystone plants to support biodiversity, strengthen ecosystem resilience, create the conditions for life’s living networks to thrive, and sustain neighborhood wildlife routes or wildflower corridors.

RE - BALANCING

GROUNDCOVER TO OVERSTORY

Proactive layers risk prevention

Our designs layer select canopy, understory or mid level shrubery, seasonal blooms, and select ground cover to create a living ecosystem that can help restore elemental balance, offset home energy consumption, and mitigate risk of wildfire or drought.

RE - USING

NATURAL + SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS

Sustainably REUSED

We recommend recycled or re-suable materials such as wood or whisky drums as rain barrels. recycled plastics that keep our oceans clean, and quality products to decrease consumption or waste.
