Tucked behind a charming home in Ardsley Park lies an extraordinary outdoor retreat—a serene, elegant space that feels more like a private sanctuary than a backyard. With a combination of vision, craftsmanship, and artistry, this once-simple yard was recently transformed into a warm and inviting living area thanks to the expert team at Form Construction.

From the moment you step into the space, it’s clear that this isn’t just any backyard—it’s a thoughtfully designed extension of the home. Neutral-toned cushioned seating invites guests to linger, while lush greenery and soft lighting set a relaxing tone. The centerpiece? A beautifully crafted fire pit surrounded by natural stone, creating the perfect gathering spot for cozy evenings under the stars.

The white brick walls and masonry details lend a timeless elegance, while personal touches like sculptural wall art, potted flowers, and a built-in bench complete the tranquil ambiance. It’s a space that balances beauty and functionality—ideal for entertaining friends, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or simply unwinding with family.

Bringing this outdoor oasis to life was a deeply personal project for Form Construction founder, who draws from a rich legacy of craftsmanship. Born into a family-run masonry business in Connecticut, he learned the trade alongside his brother from an early age. After returning to Georgia and launching his own company, he honed his skills on large-scale commercial projects and specialized in historic restoration in Savannah—earning approval from the local historical society for his precise mortar matching and facade restoration work.

Form Construction’s approach is rooted in tradition, artistry, and a deep respect for timeless design. From stonework to wood-fired ovens, every detail is crafted with purpose and passion. “I grew up watching my Italian grandmother cook and learning how to blend craft with comfort,” he says. “Creating spaces that feel like home—where families gather, cook, and make memories—that’s what drives me.”

Today, Form Construction operates across Savannah, Charleston, and Asheville, bringing one-of-a-kind visions to life with an expert touch. This Ardsley Park project is a shining example of what happens when passion meets precision—elevating a backyard into a space that inspires connection, comfort, and lasting memories.
