Design elements and features:

Six multi level paver patios

Three Permeable paver patios.

Sunken Pool Bar & kitchen with seating inside the pool and outside the pool.

20' double water falls drop into pond w/ glass panels separating pool from the pond allows koi view from the pool.

24"x 30' Running/trickle water wall over natural stone into the the pool.

3 Built-in bistro tables.

+20'high boulder wall system featuring perennial garden plantings.

Floating boulders built into the pool.

Design challenges:

12'high Bar wall engineered with 3/4" rebar & a solid concrete pour.

Lower levels of the patio system were built and excavated below the water table level, so extensive & creative drainage system had to be installed. In addition to water pumps active while under construction.

Trenching was so extensive under and around the hardscape areas that all soil had to be removed from the site & replaced with compacted clean stone so there was not a threat of future settlement. There was over 1500 yards of soil removed from the site and over 1500 yards of aggregate trucked into the site.

Spa and Fireplace:

The fire place is 17' tall at its highest point and 22' wide at the base. Stone veneer covers a steel structure and the fireplace is finished with wood holders on either side of the hearth. An outdoor TV was hung above a wooden mantelpiece and a surround sound audio system was installed which transformed the seating areas on the patio and the hot tub into personal movie theater experiences.

One major difficulty we experienced was making sure this project blended in to the previous project we had installed. A lot of the same materials were used to aide in the construction but we had to remove and reinstall some of the paver areas and boulder walls to create an even flow of the new vs old project around the pool. These new additions to the pool and main paver area had to be incorporated in such a way so as to maintain the artistic flow of the backyard without compromising the structural stability of the area.

​This project took an already out of this world residential backyard and transformed it into something truly masterful; a breathtaking oasis in the middle of a suburban neighborhood.​
