The perfect space for decompressing after a long day
This landscape project centered around creating an outdoor space that blended functionality and beauty, while respecting the natural surroundings. The focal point of the design was the Pinnacle 35 in Crystal Blue swimming pool, which not only provided a stunning visual element but also featured an automatic safety cover for peace of mind.
In the design process, views into the outdoor area were as crucial as those from the outside back into the house, ensuring a seamless connection between the interior and exterior spaces. The client, an avid admirer of Santa Fe-style gardens, requested a space that reflected that aesthetic, infusing the area with rich textures and warm, earthy tones.
The design also incorporated areas for cooking and entertaining outside, making the space ideal for social gatherings. A golf green was added to the landscape, introducing a playful dynamic and offering a fun recreational element to the area. The client valued vistas to the surrounding forest, so the layout was designed to frame these scenic views, creating a peaceful atmosphere that enhanced relaxation.
A dedicated spa area offered a serene, spa-like setting, providing the perfect space for decompressing after a long day. Throughout the entire project, collaboration with the client was key to ensuring that the final design truly met their vision, blending their personal preferences with the natural environment to create a harmonious and functional outdoor retreat.
"Rural Magic" merges the simplicity of rural aesthetics with the sophistication of modern luxury, creating a harmonious outdoor living space centered around a sleek rectangular lap pool with a flat bottom. This backyard sanctuary is designed not just for swimming but as a vibrant social hub, complete with lush landscaping, flowering garden beds, and versatile sitting areas for relaxation and dining.
Adjacent to the pool, a charming guest house offers comfortable accommodations with a view of the water, integrating seamlessly into the overall landscape. The space is further enhanced by high-quality interlocking stone that forms the patio and pool deck, extending to a beautifully crafted walkway that leads through the vibrant front yard garden. This pathway sets the stage for the property’s entrance, flanked by colorful plantings that captivate and welcome visitors.
The architectural design of the main house features a modern luxury touch with high vaulted ceilings that extend over a covered patio deck, offering a spacious and airy feel while providing sheltered outdoor living spaces. This area is perfectly equipped for hosting barbecues or simply enjoying quiet evenings in a picturesque setting.
