Passionate about entertaining, this client sought to create an elevated outdoor living experience. We gutted an old vinyl pool and installed a new custom pool and spa with an expanded contemporary patio. We demolished old brick planter beds to create an additional lounging area and added steps for easier circulation in the space. Exiting the patio to the lower left is a custom fire pit with perfectly placed boulders cut into the hill for additional seating and play. The custom putting green is a few steps below the pool patio. The planting palette includes a foundation of taxus, boxwood and arborvitae. A smattering of lavender, hydrangeas and ornamental grasses adds a touch of color and softens the hardscape.
