The initial phase of any large-scale outdoor project involves comprehensive planning and site preparation. This would include assessing the existing landscape, designing the layout of all features (pathways, patios, pool, pavilion, fire pit, planters), and obtaining necessary permits. Site preparation would then involve grading, excavation for the pool and foundations, and ensuring proper drainage. The video implies extensive groundwork was completed to achieve the multi-level patios and walkways, which seamlessly integrate with the home and surrounding landscape.
Goal: Prepare the site for extensive hardscaping and structural additions.
