My wife and I are currently living in a great neighbourhood with a very very
large back yard, therefore we have no intention of selling and moving. So
instead we thought we'd take our 35 year old home and see if we could update
the exterior, this includes new windows, doors, brick/stucco?, landscaping
and driveway. What professional could help me with designing an updated look
for the outside of my house. Would an archatech help design the driveway and
garden shapes?

Local advice is worth more than long-distance
advice. When you see a nearby house you admire,
call and ask whether the owner employed a specialist.

The problem I'm having is that I haven't seen anyone take a house like ours
and transform it into something nicer and updated. I need ideas about what
is possible.

Hi,
Anything is possible. Only cost is the limit. You must have a wish list
and must have list to begin with.

No, archatechs only do those half moon things above the doors and windows.
Landscape architects will do what you want.
