The diverse range of color hues in conjunction with the authenticity of each stone profile solidified George and Elizabeth Ruzzier's-- the driving force behind Foxwood Homes--decision to utilize Eldorado's stone in the design of their project. By applying Autumn Leaf Rough Cut on the home's exterior and Sierra Mountain Ledge on the fireplace, they created an aesthetically stunning residence with the implementation of texture, color, and natural elements, all of which is amplified by the use of stone.

This landscape design showcases a harmonious integration of natural rock formations and a variety of plant life to create a serene and inviting garden space. The focal point is a flowing water feature that meanders through the arrangement, with carefully placed rocks and boulders that mimic a natural stream. Above, the vibrant sky peeks through lush, towering greenery, adding a dynamic background. The garden beds are densely planted with a mix of textures and colors, including purple flowering ground cover, striking yucca plants with their sword-like leaves, and cascading greenery of a weeping conifer. The pathways are neatly outlined with lighter stones, contrasting with the darker mulch and rich green lawn. This inviting outdoor area seems perfect for relaxation and contemplation, enhanced by the soothing sounds of the water feature and the secluded, private feel offered by the tall plants and trees. The overall effect is one of a meticulously designed landscape that combines elements of a rock garden, water garden, and an ornamental garden with a diverse palette of plants.

Design ideas for a partial sun stone water fountain landscape in Denver.

The design strategy included working within the footprint created by the home and backyard, wanting to incorporate a swimming pool “destination” within the backyard that would be large enough to fit the “larger than life” criteria, but without taking away any of the natural beauty or obstructing the view of the horse pastures, barn and nature surrounding the home. Once the design work began, and the pool area was able to incorporate one of every feature the customer could have wanted, Curtis had some steel grates from a former tilt-a-whirl carnival ride that gave him the idea of suspending a stage over the pool. The initial idea was a modest stage with some waterfall/sheer decent features. With the idea of using steel to form the framework, the stage idea grew into something much more that would include a full stage set up, lighting trusses, a “green room” and staging area. Once the stage was designed to be so large, the pool size and scope needed to match including the patio surround, area underneath the stage, and all the additional features. The home architecture is a Ranch with a full finished walkout basement adjacent to the pool area. An existing deck had to be removed to allow for the pool build and new Trex deck, as well as a 3 story tall observation tower that overlooks the pool and surrounding horse pastures. The design strategy was to work within the footprint the house and decks provided to create an extension of the home for outdoor entertaining. Since the exterior of the house was quite long (and dull, the owner equating it to a 1970’s motel), our team needed to incorporate elements to make the space feel more like a backyard resort. The goal was maintaining a cozy at home feel in a grand expanse of space. It takes a team and a unique blend of artistry to build this project. Sandi Maki, co-owner of the company is responsible for the business side of things, and marketing to reach exceptional customers who allow us to build these backyard dreams. The construction side of our company boasts a diverse, multi-geneational family business. Allan Curtis is the designer/builder and comes up with the fantastic pool plans and ideas. His team consists of his daughter Jesse Curtis, who is high right hand and manages the project just as much as Allan does. She is instrumental in everything from dig day, to tying the steel, pouring the concrete, stonework and tile work, forming the waterfall, applying ecoFinish, pouring and stamping patio, and everything in between. Allan’s nephew Mark Curtis installed and plumbed the three pool filtration systems. Allan’s wife Annie has become very good at stonework on walls and waterfalls adding the unique accents our projects have become known for. Allan’s sister-in-law, Karen Olson also does tile and stonework on the jobs and created the rockstar mural on the patio. Frank DiPiazza assists with structural elements and built the new deck, and college student Brendan Schafer assists where needed and maintains the pool and equipment during the summer on a weekly basis. As with many homeowners who reach out to Legendary Escapes, this owner, Dale Walter, knew he wanted a “custom” pool without knowing what that really meant. He was able to show Curtis the space, and his initial ideas, and then allowed Allan and his team the freedom to dream and build. The majority of Legendary Escapes customers make the decision to hire the company after the first meeting with Curtis. As long as the project and design are challenging and interesting, the customer meets the criteria of being easy to work with, and is special in their own unique way Curtis will consider taking on their project. From the beginning it is important to Curtis that the customer understands they need to allow the project to take on a life of it’s own, and for Curtis to create without interference or asking too many questions – working together becomes a reality. The design is typically presented on paper, a hand-colored, hand drawn design that outlines only the large elements, and an accompanying budget which outlines the structural elements and budgets and has a “theme” budget for items to be determined but doesn’t change once it is set. Once that contract is signed, Curtis and his team over-deliver on what the customer could only have dreamed up in their wildest imagination. Projects proceed in an organic way- not every element is planned before the project begins. As the space begins to take shape, so do the details and finishing elements. When the Rockstar project began, there was no plan for the guitars on the fences, or guitar fire features. The VIP seating area wasn’t added until mid way through the patio pours as the space began to take shape. The murals both in the grotto and on the pool floor were planned just moments before each of them was to be installed. It’s this free-flowing combination of the customers and team’s dreams, ideas, elements and the Legendary Escapes team that creates backyard pools that are as much art as they are design and engineering masterpieces.

Improve your bedroom with the perfect area rug, an essential piece that adds both style and comfort to your space. A well-chosen rug does more than just cover the floor—it injects warmth, texture, and personality into your bedroom decor. With a variety of options available, finding the ideal rug involves considering design, material, and practical features. Design and Style: Choose a rug that complements your bedroom’s aesthetic, whether it’s contemporary, modern, traditional, mid-century modern, or transitional. Hand-tufted and hand-knotted rugs offer luxurious textures and detailed craftsmanship, perfect for adding a touch of elegance. For a sleek, modern look, machine-woven rugs feature vibrant patterns and are designed for durability, often with heat-set fibers that extend their lifespan. Flat-woven rugs, such as kilims, are versatile and reversible, fitting seamlessly into various decor styles. Materials and Comfort: The material of your rug affects both its look and feel. Shag and flokati rugs provide a plush, cozy experience with their long, soft fibers, making your bedroom a more inviting retreat. Hand-loomed rugs offer unique textures and artisanal quality, while braided and hand-hooked rugs bring a charming, handcrafted element. Opt for machine washable rugs to simplify maintenance, ensuring your rug remains fresh and clean with minimal effort. Practical Features: Select rugs that combine style with practical benefits. Stain-resistant and water-resistant rugs maintain their appearance and withstand spills. Non-slip and adhesive backings are essential for safety on hardwood floors, preventing slips and keeping the rug securely in place. Cushioned rugs provide added comfort, enhancing the luxury and coziness of your bedroom. Customization and Personalization: Personalize your space with custom or personalized rug sets. An 8x10 area rug offers ample coverage and can be tailored to fit your bedroom perfectly. Features like fringe details or organic textures allow you to create a rug that reflects your unique style and complements your existing decor.
