A tent was constructed to envelope this 100 year old Elm Chinese Wedding Bed. The silk deep Orange and Hot Pink fabric is attached with rods secured to the high ceiling. A Moroccan green glass pendant is securely attached to the top of the tent for a focal point.

Upon opening the Shoji doors you'll find a beautiful hand-paint black lacquered desk with a coordinating hot pink chair, matching the brightly painted flowers on the desk. This Asian inspired office is fit for a queen and is complete with all of the Asian artwork and treasures collected from her world travels. Custom cabinetry was designed to house a printer, filing cabinets and office storage. A floor outlet was placed under the desk to power her laptop. A contemporary, sleek fan and a coffered ceiling set the tone for an amazing office.

The limited amount of usable outdoor space available at this Old Greenwich waterfront home challenged us to make the best use of the space. The client decided to create this 8’6” x 7’ saltwater spa/pool with a stone veneer wall with a built in waterfall and fire feature. The raised Chinese granite and bluestone patio was custom built on a steel substructure that needed to be structurally engineered to support this unique custom design. In addition, the water feature, spa and pool equipment itself was designed for cold weather and 12 months of usage. The stone for the wall was hand selected to match the exterior walls of the residence. The custom 6 ft linear fire feature was set in a sea of cobalt blue and bright white glass on top of the stone wall. To cap the custom fire feature, a hand cut piece of bluestone was used. A sheer decent razor thin waterfall flows from the face of the stone wall into the body of water below. Atop the feature wall sits a stainless steel sculpture by the French artist, Guillaume Roche. The sculpture is part of his Exclos series, which seeks to contrast through concepts such as mass and void. Each piece is unique, designed and realized in his workshop in Etrechy en Essonne, France and compliments the unique design of the water feature. The interior of the pool is finished in a French Gray quartzite accented by a linear Ceramic Waterline Tile. The Custom Saltwater Spa is fitted with 16 Hydro Therapy Jet Inlets and special spa bench seating. The pool utilizes green technology to sanitize the pool with a Jandy saltwater chlorinating system. The Jandy Pro Series WaterColors LED color pool and spa lights with RGBW bring a palate of colors to this backyard paradise for a truly unique atmosphere. The spa lights offer energy efficiency and the colors enhance the brilliance of the nighttime pool experience. The automatic spa safety cover is concealed below a bluestone tread, which blends in with the rest of the spa coping. The Jandy I Aqualink automated pool control system is operated by the Control4 in-house smart system, which allows the client to use a smart phone or computer to control the pool.

The pair of sofas facing each other famed the fireplace perfectly and added a comfortable and unusual sitting area. The flower silk upholstery gave the antique sofas the special touch and complimented the gold leaf relief carving in the black lacquer coffee table. The reds in the fabric placed focus on red in the silk taffeta curtains and the main painting decorating the upper part of the fireplace added a feminine but beautiful aspect the living area.

For this glorious expansive Travertine patio, Deck and Patio installed Travertine from Turkey — for its beauty, density and porosity — which we could guarantee would withstand our area’s severe climate changes and maintain its elegance. www.deckandpatio.com

The large guest bathroom resulted from combining two smaller spaces. This room services both guest bedrooms. As for the master bathroom, hand-cut glass mosaic tiles were used to create a mural inspired by tropical flora and fauna. An antique Chinese box is echoed by the vanity’s lacquered chair. A gold-leafed glass vessel ties in the deeper shades of the mosaic tiles.

The look of Travertine is exquisite. It has a smooth surface with small pores and dimples that give it an “old world finish.” This particular project used well over 2,500 square feet of Travertine, and over 180 linear feet of fullnose coping for the pool and spa. www.deckandpatio.com

This corner lot in the University Park section of Dallas was in need of a major landscape facelift in both the front and back. Texas Lawn Care was brought in to provide landscape design and construction services for the entire site which comprised a complete redo of the front entry sequence including a completely new driveway, approach, and front porch. A unique pool and hot tub design was planned for the back yard along with a new covered patio space complete with a fireplace, television and surround sound. New landscape plantings soften and brighten the scene in both the front and back yards. Plantings include several Japanese Maple trees, an espaliered Magnolia, Knockout Roses, Drift Roses, Hydrangea, Chinese Fringe Flower, Holly Fern, Lantana and a mix of other perennials which add loads of color.

The Travertine stone we used for this project enhanced the geometric shape of the pool and it was decided to elevate the diving area for added interest. This raised area offers a quiet escape for relaxing; bright plantings add to the pleasure of it all. www.deckandpatio.com
