Curb appeal was lacking at Midway Ford in Roseville
Residentially, we design landscapes to extend the indoor
living space to the outdoors. With limited retail space at Midway Ford, the
exterior became an extension of the interior showroom.
Southview Design created a 3D rendering to show how the exterior would look after a much-needed renovation.
Rather than eliminating
front plant beds and replacing them with more parking, retaining wall blocks
created level spaces surrounding the front and sides of the store for pavers.
These
wall blocks are perfect for commercial applications. At more than 1000 lbs.
each, we took advantage of the hollow space and added tubes for concrete
footings for aluminum railing.
Soil filled the rest of the block interior for
eventual plant beds.
The hottest cars are now displayed around the front of the
building and highlighted from below by low voltage up-lighting in the plant
beds.
New concrete steps, an access
ramp, redesigned drainage, can lights in the eaves, new plants and trees, and
aluminum railings were added to complete the updated look.
