The client wanted a pool in their backyard, a very big pool. However, the pool would fill most of the backyard and leave very little space for entertaining. The yard was also significantly lower than the house, which would make the pool look sunken. An additional requirement was that the pool needed to look as historic as the house. This required the use of lots of tile and materials to create a fountain and reflecting pool feeling to the swimming pool. A slightly above ground pool was suggested, but the homeowner couldn’t visualize how it would look or work. A series of concept sketches from different angles were created to help the client visualize the design.

Pool Area Facelift
The pool decking was resurfaced to look like flagstone. A tile mural was added to the wall above the spa area. Matching tile was added at the base of the wall. A fountain was added to create soft water noise to mask the sounds of the neighborhood. Colorful pots of succulents that match the tile were added to warm up the area and make it more inviting.
