Luxury Outdoor Living Designed as a Complete Outdoor Environment
At BLG Environmental Services, luxury outdoor living in Orlando is about more than individual features — it’s about how every element works together to create a cohesive, refined outdoor environment. From architectural hardscapes and custom pool surrounds to thoughtfully designed patios, walkways, and landscape transitions, our work is guided by balance, flow, and long-term livability.
Every outdoor space we design begins with the property as a whole. We consider how hardscapes, landscape architecture, lighting, and open-air living areas interact with the home, the land, and the way the space will be used — whether for quiet evenings outdoors or entertaining on a larger scale. The result is an outdoor environment that feels intentional, comfortable, and seamlessly integrated.
Our design team specializes in creating custom outdoor living spaces that are tailored to the architecture of the home and the lifestyle of the homeowner. From poolside environments and expansive patios to pathways and gathering spaces that guide movement naturally through the landscape, each project reflects a design-led approach rooted in luxury landscape design.
At BLG, we manage the entire process — from concept and design through construction — ensuring that every detail is executed with care and consistency. Our outdoor living projects are known for their craftsmanship, durability, and the elevated experience they create, allowing homeowners to fully enjoy their property and the outdoor lifestyle Orlando is known for.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a luxury outdoor living project different from standard landscaping or hardscapes?
Luxury outdoor living focuses on designing the entire outdoor environment as a cohesive extension of the home. Instead of adding individual features in isolation, elements such as patios, pools, hardscapes, lighting, and landscape architecture are planned together to ensure flow, functionality, and long-term use. This approach emphasizes design leadership, coordination, and how the space will actually be lived in.
How does luxury outdoor living differ from hardscape installation alone?
Hardscape installation typically focuses on specific components such as patios, walkways, or retaining walls. Luxury outdoor living design incorporates those elements into a broader plan that also accounts for landscape integration, circulation, privacy, and how the space functions day and night. In this context, hardscapes are treated as part of a larger, intentional design rather than a stand-alone project.
Is luxury outdoor living design worth it for Orlando homes?
In Orlando’s climate, outdoor spaces are often used year-round, making thoughtful outdoor living design especially valuable. A well-planned outdoor environment can improve everyday use of the property, support entertaining, and create comfortable spaces across seasons. Design-led projects also tend to age better than piecemeal additions.
Should I work with a landscape designer or a landscape contractor for an outdoor living project?
For projects that involve multiple elements such as pools, patios, hardscapes, and landscape features, working with a landscape designer helps ensure the entire space is planned holistically before construction begins. Understanding the difference between a landscape designer and a landscape contractor can help homeowners avoid design conflicts and unexpected changes during installation.
What is typically included in a luxury outdoor living design-build process?
A full design-build process generally includes site evaluation, conceptual design, detailed planning, material selection, and coordinated construction. Managing both design and build helps maintain consistency between the original vision and the finished outdoor environment.
How long does a luxury outdoor living project usually take?
Project timelines vary based on scope, design complexity, permitting, and construction sequencing. Design-driven projects typically begin with planning and approvals before construction starts, which helps minimize delays and costly changes once work is underway.
