Outdoor Living
& Landscape

The Bay Area climate is unforgiving. We build for it.

Built for the Weather You Actually Have.

Coastal fog. Marine layer. Temperature swings. The Bay Area's climate is harder on outdoor materials than most catalogs admit. We spec for longevity — not just the install photo.

The wrong paver spalls. The wrong wood decks grey and checks within two seasons. The wrong outdoor kitchen countertop stains. We've seen all of it — and we'll steer you away from it before you spend the money.

  • Patios, pergolas, and shade structures
  • Outdoor kitchens: counters, grills, refrigeration, sinks
  • Hardscape: natural stone, concrete, pavers — specced for coastal climate
  • Retaining walls and grading
  • Outdoor dining and fire features
  • Material selection for UV, moisture, and temperature cycling

Sustainable landscape design by Cody Design Build

Functional. Durable. Yours.

Patios, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, planting. We design for how you actually use your outdoor space, then build it to last.

David's background in ecological design means we approach planting and site work differently — with an understanding of soil, water, and how Bay Area microclimates behave. Landscapes that get better over time, not ones that need constant intervention.

  • Sustainable, drought-tolerant planting design
  • Native and site-appropriate plant selection
  • Irrigation and drip system design
  • Soil health, amendment, and drainage planning
  • Edible gardens and food-producing landscapes
  • Erosion control on sloped Bay Area sites
