Brooklyn Brownstone Backyard Garden with Custom Millwork and Outdoor Kitchen

“Amazing transformation of our outdoor space. From our first meeting Kristin was responsive and creative in how to meet the needs that our family wanted from the space. The sub-contractors hired to do the work were hard-working, honest and so personable. The end result is absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be happier about working with Birch and Basil Design.”
