After

Homeowners Donna and Charlie Christensen want to extend their outdoor space for family gatherings, and they'd also like to camouflage a series of drainage pipes. Designer Denise Muscarella has a plan for the transformation — a fire pit with a stone backsplash, a stone bench and steps, a fence to hide the pipes and painting the pipes so they blend in with the hillside.

Before

The homeowner's backyard was not conducive for family gatherings. It had a series of unsightly drainage pipes showing throughout the lawn and very little to no landscape design. Now their backyard has a family-friendly campground style, with plenty of aspects to show off to family and friends.
