This Doylestown, PA pool has a unique Tiki Bar. In addition it has all the water features an in ground pool can have, a huge paver patio pool deck, a fire feature, and to top it all off a low voltage lighting system that really brings the party to life at night. Lets not forget the pool house, and matching paver stone driveway entrance. This outdoor living space has it all and then some. A very impressive space. The water features include a raised heated spa, a large sun-shelf, a cozy corner, a boulder waterfall, water jet streams, and colored led night lights. The fire feature includes a natural boulder fire pit which is both elemental and essential to make this space a well rounded outdoor experience. A unique feature is the Tiki bar hut which just makes such a cool element for entertaining guests during parties. Lastly, a convenient pool house makes this place stand out as an awesome pool project.

The owners of this large wooded property in Issaquah envisioned a “forever” home that would embrace the site’s natural beauty while accommodating their family’s long-term needs. The design focuses on creating a single-story, approximately 4,500-square-foot custom home with an attached 950-square-foot garage, thoughtfully nestled within the forested portion of the property to frame views of the surrounding landscape, stream, and pond. The home was designed with future aging-in-place in mind, providing accessible living while supporting the family’s evolving lifestyle. The modern, minimalist design centers around a great room with an open plan that seamlessly connects the main living spaces to the outdoors. Private areas are organized into wings to provide separation and tranquility while maintaining a strong visual and physical connection to nature. The existing cabin, located near the pond, was transformed into the “Pond House,” an entertainment-focused space that can accommodate recreation for the children or larger gatherings. Its open plan layout opens to the outdoors on two sides via large sliding glass doors—one leading to a deck overlooking the pond and another to a covered entertaining area—creating a flexible and inviting space that integrates indoor and outdoor living. + Architecture: H2D Architecture + Design www.h2darchitects.com + Interior Design: Briana Benton + Built by: Schenkar Construction

Bask in the sunlight streaming into this minimalist haven in the heart of the Hollywood Hills. Clean lines and a muted color palette create a serene atmosphere, allowing the iconic Eames La Chaise lounge chair to take center stage. Its sculptural form and inviting curves beckon you to relax and unwind, while the plush white upholstery adds a touch of luxury. A carefully curated gallery wall of black and white photography adorns the wall, adding depth and visual interest to the space. Each photograph, meticulously framed in black, tells a story of mid-century modern architecture and California's rich cultural heritage. The interplay of light and shadow in the photographs creates a dramatic effect, further enhancing the room's artistic ambiance. The room's minimalist design is punctuated by a few carefully chosen accents. A small, round side table, crafted from wrought iron and topped with a single yellow flower in a sleek vase, adds a touch of warmth and organic beauty. The stone floors, cool and smooth underfoot, provide a natural counterpoint to the softness of the lounge chair. This sitting area is a sanctuary for the modern aesthete, a place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse oneself in the beauty of design and art. It is a space that celebrates the timeless elegance of mid-century modern furniture and the enduring appeal of California's iconic architecture.

Asian influences blended with native plantings helped create this garden, which we call Prairie-fusion. Water is the main focus of the garden, which falls and flows creating both visual and audial impact. Colorful koi dot the dark waters which reflect light and landscape. Choices in construction material were made to enhance a rustic look while touches of Japanese-inspired influences were appropriately placed to introduce an exotic feel. In keeping with the traditional Japanese gardens, raked rocks and boulders simulate islands in water. While inspired by the East, the garden is rooted firmly in the Midwestern landscape, surrounded and softened by plants native to woodlands and wetlands, including ferns, sedges, wild columbine, blue flag iris, horsetail rush, water lilies and native maples. A ramp leading up to the decking combined both reclaimed railroad ties and gravel, tying in the two solid ground influences in the garden. Live moss was used heavily on boulders and wood creating the illusion of a garden which has been tucked away, living and growing for a long time. Photo by Larry Carnes

Constructed in two phases, this renovation, with a few small additions, touched nearly every room in this late ‘50’s ranch house. The owners raised their family within the original walls and love the house’s location, which is not far from town and also borders conservation land. But they didn’t love how chopped up the house was and the lack of exposure to natural daylight and views of the lush rear woods. Plus, they were ready to de-clutter for a more stream-lined look. As a result, KHS collaborated with them to create a quiet, clean design to support the lifestyle they aspire to in retirement. To transform the original ranch house, KHS proposed several significant changes that would make way for a number of related improvements. Proposed changes included the removal of the attached enclosed breezeway (which had included a stair to the basement living space) and the two-car garage it partially wrapped, which had blocked vital eastern daylight from accessing the interior. Together the breezeway and garage had also contributed to a long, flush front façade. In its stead, KHS proposed a new two-car carport, attached storage shed, and exterior basement stair in a new location. The carport is bumped closer to the street to relieve the flush front facade and to allow access behind it to eastern daylight in a relocated rear kitchen. KHS also proposed a new, single, more prominent front entry, closer to the driveway to replace the former secondary entrance into the dark breezeway and a more formal main entrance that had been located much farther down the facade and curiously bordered the bedroom wing. Inside, low ceilings and soffits in the primary family common areas were removed to create a cathedral ceiling (with rod ties) over a reconfigured semi-open living, dining, and kitchen space. A new gas fireplace serving the relocated dining area -- defined by a new built-in banquette in a new bay window -- was designed to back up on the existing wood-burning fireplace that continues to serve the living area. A shared full bath, serving two guest bedrooms on the main level, was reconfigured, and additional square footage was captured for a reconfigured master bathroom off the existing master bedroom. A new whole-house color palette, including new finishes and new cabinetry, complete the transformation. Today, the owners enjoy a fresh and airy re-imagining of their familiar ranch house.

Challenges with your backyard space? Yeah, that's no problem for us. In this space, the deck could not be attached to the house because of the way this turn-of-the-century home was built. The house is 100 years old and the basement door is right in the middle of the back of the house, preventing an attached deck. Another big challenge on this space was that the lot sloped up the hill and away from the house. So what did we do? We excavated and put in retaining walls and build it into the side of the hill, while maintaining integrity of the backyard space and driveway. The homeowners wanted their outdoor space on the same level as the play area with swingset so that they could watch the kids while they relax. Nailed it! A little bit about us… Deck Remodeler’s Founder and President, Sean McAleer, grew up in his father’s architectural woodworking shop and mastered his craft as a third-generation carpenter and cabinet maker organically. While others adopted the craft, Sean was born in to it. Building a business using the skills he learned and perfected over the years…it’s in his DNA. With 30+ years of experience, he adapted and developed a palette of materials and methods for outdoor living that few can match, though many have tried to copy. Bringing his love of designing and building beautiful things inside the home to the outside spaces with all the challenges that presents has been his passion for decades. While Sean is certainly the visionary of Deck Remodelers, his talented and dedicated team ensures every project, big or small, is designed and built seamlessly.
