The pool was built new, from excavation through steel, plumbing and shotcrete, and finished with a dark interior, a full-width tanning shelf with in-water seating, and a raised spa clad in dark stone that spills the length of its wall into the pool. Twin fire and water bowls sit on stacked-stone columns to either side, so the spa wall reads as the centerpiece of the yard from every angle.
Large-format pavers run in wide bands separated by ribbons of artificial turf, carrying one palette from the house to the rear fence. A louvered pergola with integrated lighting covers the outdoor kitchen and its built-in grill, refrigerator and bar seating, with a linear fire pit lounge alongside. A sauna and an outdoor rain shower, tiled in dark herringbone over a pebble floor, are set against the house.
After dark the pool and spa light deep blue, the pergola and planting are uplit, and both fire features run, so the yard works as hard in the evening as it does at midday.
