Stephanie's House - Exterior
http://www.tracystonearchitect.com

The conversion of this historic Victorian carriage house (a City of LA Monument) into a new guest house/pool cabana included the addition of new decks, a 50' lap pool, and a new spa with integrated fire pit. The pool aligns with the french doors leading out from the living room of the main house, leaving room on one side for wood decks and planters and on the other for a series of concrete pads designed to accomodate pool-side lounging.

fire image - I would love to incorporate your image into a presentation (Trends in Outdoor Living) I am doing for the Shade conference in Phoenix. Is there any way you could please send me this image (approx. 1200x800 pixels is fine) to: kathryn@prideauxdesign.net? I would SO appreciate it. And I will definitely give your firm credits on the image. Thank you! »

Tracy Stone AIA Hi Kathryn. I am happy to supply you with the photo for your presentation. I have asked Jennifer Gilman in my office to send it to you. The photographer was Lawrence Anderson. Please give him credit as well.

Thanks,
Tracy

Mushfaque Chowdhury Thanks. I've just aquired the land for my house so starting the build. I'll be exploring these when we get the outside landscaping. So thank you.

added by Shane D. Inman to Extend Your Living Space With an Outdoor Fireplace
Low lying. Forgo the traditional fireplace for a modern in-ground version instead. Tip: Consider your family's needs. Although this fireplace is beautiful, it isn't particularly kid friendly.
added by Amber Hopman to 13 New Ways to Make a Splash With a Hot Tub
If you're a bit of a daredevil, bring the flames to you by including a cleverly placed fire pit.

Like the jacuzzi and the fire pit, the jacuzzi is probably not possible and would require the yard be much more private, but a fire pit would be great - maybe on the deck?
