This patio design is inspired by our Ocean Grande patio slab. The new Ocean Grande is Techo-Bloc’s latest dry cast slab using a new high-definition technology that provides an extremely tight surface texture with pores that are virtually invisible. This 60 mm thick slab is 19 ½’’ x 32 ½’’ and designed with very thin joint spacing for a seamless look that lets the slab's texture be the real star of the show. The Ocean texture is a first of its kind and was inspired by the veins left behind on sandy ocean shores. Perfect for pool decks and patios, this innovative concrete surface is slip-resistant and stays cooler under the feet on hot summer days due to its unique relief and light colour pallet.

A total renovation of this backyard pool including new tile, re-plastering in a tranquil hue of Mediterranean blue. A new tanning ledge was added to the pool complete with bubblers. A new aggregate concrete area integrated into the existing pool surround. Notice how we created a custom niche to house the clients’ shade umbrella as part of the design – so custom! A new channel drain was added between the new and old patio areas to ensure water drains properly. The new gable-end covered patio addition was tied into the existing roofline. The patio cover features an open gable end with decorative (crow’s feet) details. On the interior of the covered patio we used a Hardie board finish to retain the originality of the existing home. In addition to finishing the new patio cover interior, we also installed the same Hardie board to the existing covered area on the back of the home. This enabled us to unify the existing and new structure in a way that makes the addition feel original to the home. This is an area that Archadeck of Northeast Dallas-Southlake is so well-known for! Also within the covered patio is the new 9-foot bar whcih has a TV mounted overhead. We coordinated installation of speakers with the speaker company. They did the wiring when the ceiling finish was still open and then they came back out to finish the installation. Archadeck added plenty of lighting and multiple ceiling fans within the space. Adjacent to the covered patio, Archadeck installed a privacy wall to keep all the pool equipment within reach but out of view.

The six-foot-wide river lined completely with pebble-finish glass tile and travertine edging was positioned to curve and wind along open vistas and beside multiple lounging areas. Riders on the lazy river get a thrill under the cooling rain walls. Photo by Joe Traina
