About Refined Outdoor Living Environments
The sign on my office wall reads "PROGRESS ALWAYS INVOLVES RISK; YOU CAN’T STEAL SECOND BASE AND KEEP YOUR FOOT ON FIRST." With that philosophy in mind, I elected to pursue a Lifelong Dream in 1993. I left the comforts of a secure design/sales position with a large Cleveland area design/build firm to return to my hometown of Pittsburgh to bring my dream into existence.

Having been involved with the design and implementation of over 35 million dollars in projects over the last twenty years, has been my most challenging and by far most rewarding experience.

I have adopted the "Progress Involves Risk" philosophy in the manner by which I approach designing. Always pushing the envelope; proposing unique solutions to challenging situations; consistently researching and recommending the most appropriate, innovative and fresh ideas.

We have had great success in creating functional and aesthetic residential and commercial environments with elements as spectacular as ten level water features moving more than 4200 gallons of water per minute and as subtle and relaxing as an intimate country cut flower garden complete with bench and stone walkway.

Our success has evolved around sound design expertise and a staff of Craftsman taking ultimate pride in breathing life into our designs.

We work very closely with our Clients who have come to love the landscaped environments we have created. For that I am Most Proud!

Whether it is a new landscape installation or a renovation to an existing project, I welcome you to explore the exciting options that we are passionate about creating. - Ed Bayer
