Who else loves the sustainable approach? There's something special about giving materials a second life instead of starting from scratch. Plus, the budget savings didn't hurt either!

What forgotten materials do you have that could be reimagined in your outdoor space? Sometimes the perfect elements are already in your backyard!

Today we're celebrating a very special birthday! Happy 84th to Gramps - not just my hero, but Urban Design Company's secret weapon. From day one, his wisdom, work ethic, and unwavering support have been the foundation of everything we've built. The man taught me not just how to problem solve and work with my hands, but how to lead with heart. So many of our successes have Gramps' fingerprints all over them! Our team wouldn't be who we are without his influence. Raise a glass with us today to the legend himself! Love you, Gramps - thanks for showing us all how it's done. 🎂
