Country Road 8
Challenge
The property featured a significant slope from front to back, with the house, driveway, and landscaping directly in the path of natural water flow, requiring precise grading and drainage solutions to prevent water-related issues. Additionally, the backyard’s poor soil quality presented challenges for installing the pool on sloped terrain, necessitating specialized engineering techniques to ensure structural integrity. Finally, it was crucial to harmonize the design of the hardscape and softscape with the home’s architecture and the interior designer’s chosen color palette, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor aesthetic.
Solution
To address these challenges, we brought together a skilled team of landscape architects, civil and structural engineers, interior designers, home builders, and expert trades. This collaborative approach allowed us to coordinate every detail, ensuring precision in both function and aesthetics. We established accurate elevations for the hardscape and softscape, which improved drainage and maintained structural integrity on the sloped site. The use of specialized engineering solutions guaranteed the long-term stability of the pool, while careful material selection and design coordination created a harmonious flow between the home’s exterior and interior. The result is a stunning, functional outdoor space that seamlessly integrates with the property’s architecture and design.
