Mix hot Texas summers with a big open backyard and you have yourself a recipe for the perfect pool! The large open backyard of this property was perfect for a new pool and outdoor entertaining areas to make the best use of the space. While the homeowners wanted a pool with a contemporary feel, we also wanted to make sure the materials we used complimented the home. To tie them together, we replaced the original patio and steps with Texas stone to match the new stone retaining wall. Using these materials allowed us to better blend the transition from the home to the pool area. We then installed the new pool with a hot tub area just at the base of the patio steps. The surrounding landscape beds were filled with heat tolerant perennials and shrubs for easy maintenance. Beautiful. We had a hard time leaving!
