Honoring History — Birmingham, Alabama

Brick by brick, this driveway and retaining wall was reconstructed using rare Old Bessemer Grey brick to complement the historic home. The elegant side patio provides contrast using more modern pavers and fresh florals. 

The restoration of a driveway and landscape for this home on a mainstay street in Homewood was a true collaboration between the homeowner, Marcia Unger Interiors, Chuck Kelly Landscape Architects, and Father Nature. Together, we brought this stunning property back to life, paying close attention to every detail. One of the many renovations included reconstructing the driveway and building a retaining wall using rare Old Bessemer Grey brick to complement the historic home’s architecture. The result is a beautiful, cohesive look that blends seamlessly with the home’s classic design. The elegant side patio features more modern pavers and fresh florals, creating a stunning visual contrast while still maintaining the overall historic feel of the property. The collaborative effort led us to create a stunning outdoor space that perfectly complements the home’s unique charm and character.
