Moving to the next shot, we see the wall under construction, designed to handle the grade change from the driveway to the backyard. The wall is made of natural stone, which is milled on the top and bottom edges, ensuring a smooth and seamless stack.

In this image, we see the footings and concrete pad prepared for the bluestone overlay, with the rest of the yard still under construction. The location of the machine marks where we created a soil ramp to provide access to the backyard.

Here, the main structure of the pergola is going up, complemented by the decorative plinths. These plinths added a touch of elegance and sophistication to the design.
