Cedar Pool
Retreat
A contemporary backyard showcase built around a clean-lined pool, warm materials and spaces that move easily from lounging to entertaining.
A resort feel,
without losing the home.
The goal was to give the property a true destination feeling while keeping the design connected to the architecture of the house.
The concept balances a rectilinear pool, shaded lounge space, dining and planting so the yard feels elevated without looking over-designed.

A pool yard that still feels like home.
The pool is the focus, but the surrounding patio, shade, dining and planting make the backyard comfortable even when nobody is swimming.
Arrival
Wide-format paving creates a confident transition from the interior to the terrace.
Relax
Low lounge areas and framed views make the pool feel integrated instead of isolated.
Entertain
Dining and grill space sit close enough to the house to feel easy every day.
Evening
Lighting, water reflection and warm finishes keep the yard usable after sunset.
Materials that work together.
The details matter because they determine whether the finished space feels natural to the house or simply added on.
From sunny afternoons into evening.
