Pool - traditional backyard rectangular pool idea in New York

Over-pool configuration at Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia: a white Allscape Patio Signature Series motorized louvered pergola spanning a lakefront swim spa on a multilevel travertine terrace, with dining and an outdoor kitchen on the upper level. Lakefront settings see gusts a courtyard never will, so the clear-span structure is wind-load designed for open exposure, with engineered footings outside the shell zone and louvers held to the deflection limits that keep them sealing. Marine-grade powder-coated aluminum, stainless fasteners and sealed motor housings answer the chloraminated air above the water; metal within five feet of the edge is bonded to the pool's equipotential grid under NEC Article 680; louvers drain to integrated gutters routed away from the water and rain sensors close the roof automatically. Structural drawings accompany the permit under the Virginia USBC. Design-build by Allscape Patio & Landscape, serving Smith Mountain Lake, Moneta, Rocky Mount, Roanoke and Bedford County.

These homeowners loved their outdoor space, complete with a pool and deck, but wanted to better utilize the space for entertaining with the full kitchen experience and amenities. This update was designed keeping the Tuscan architecture of their home in mind. We built a cabana with an Italian design, complete with a kegerator, icemaker, fridge, grill with custom hood and tile backsplash and full overlay custom cabinetry. A sink for meal prep and clean up enhanced the full kitchen function. A cathedral ceiling with stained bead board and ceiling fans make this space comfortable. Additionally, we built a screened in porch with stained bead board ceiling, ceiling fans, and custom trim including custom columns tying the exterior architecture to the interior. Limestone columns with brick pedestals, limestone pavers and a screened in porch with pergola and a pool bath finish the experience, with a new exterior space that is not only reminiscent of the original home but allows for modern amenities for this family to enjoy for years to come.

Located in the Beverly Grove neighborhood of LA. This private residence occupies a bustling corner. Organized as an L-shape along the two street sides, the mass of the building works as a buffer for the interior courtyard and pool. From the exterior the house was divided into two distinct smooth stucco volumes connected by a rough reclaimed wood siding stairway. The roof is clad in standing seam metal with concealed gutters.

Tradition Outdoor Living can create a refreshing oasis in your own backyard! This outdoor living space boasts a custom pool to maximize the backyard area, along with a bubbling spa and dazzling fire feature. The custom pool and spa, outlined by travertine coping, stack-stone walls, and non-slip spray deck surface, will keep you cool in the daytime heat and will glow in the evening with LED pool lighting. The water features that set this pool apart include Sheer Descent waterfalls and bubbling jets in the shallow portion of the pool, known as the Sun Deck. The exquisite, natural gas fire pit radiates with an adjustable flame height and matching stack stone walls and travertine capstone to give a flowing nature to this entertaining space. Needless to say, the shimmer of the decorative glass provides a view in itself! One of the biggest benefits to the Gas Burning Fire-Pit: no ashes, no hassle! With our client’s interests in mind, we created a covered patio built to look original to the home with matching paint, shingles and gutters, maintaining a traditional yet fresh appeal to the backyard space. The cedar wrapped posts and beams convey a natural feel to this patio cover addition. The vaulted ceiling, finished with pre-stained tongue and groove pine, gives the room an airy and spacious feel. Lighting the patio are the recessed can lights and flood lights, and to make the warmer days bearable, outdoor ceiling fans are a plus!

Placed on a large site with the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy at the rear boundary, this one story residence presents a modest, composed public façade to the street while opening to the rear yard with two wings surrounding a large loggia or “outdoor living room.” With its thick walls, overhangs, and ample cross ventilation, the project demonstrates the simple idea that a building should respond carefully to its environment.
