JAQUE Named a Landscape Designer Who Stole the Spotlight at the 2025 ICONIC Design Awards

Congratulations to the winners of the third annual ICONIC Design Awards presented by Monogram Luxury Appliances.
Going into our third year of this prestigious design competition, ICONIC LIFE saw more than 350 entries across four categories: interior design, architecture, landscape design and product design. We can’t express our gratitude enough for entering our competition.
The ICONIC Design Awards was designed to embrace integrity and inclusion. Our mission was to create an exciting awards competition with a foundation of integrity.
Winners were evaluated by an esteemed jury of peers across the country. Entries were submitted and judged anonymously, and the ICONIC LIFE team was not involved in the judging process. There was no popular voting, no required professional association and no advertising requirement to submit an entree.
Each year, we want this competition to represent the best designers and creatives in our community; it’s open to all professionals.
JAQUE Wins Silver Prestigious Recognition
With four young children, the clients dreamed of an outdoor space that was not only visually appealing but also livable. The design team responded with a bold yet balanced approach, anchoring the space with a custom 60-by-40-foot pergola that creates flexibility for both sun-filled days and intimate evening gatherings.
The pergola’s strong geometric language informed the landscape design. A custom metal standing seam roof shelters the outdoor kitchen and dining area, ensuring the space is usable in unpredictable weather.
A masonry privacy wall doubles as a fireplace feature. The family-focused brief came to life through a built-in trampoline, basketball court, and layered conversation areas.
This home is an architectural gesture of connection. It embodies a vision that deepens the experience of nature through design.
