The homeowners desired a contemporary-style landscape design for their three children to enjoy now and in the future. The two elements they wanted included in their design were a swimming pool and an outdoor living space. We designed and installed a rectangular swimming pool, a square pergola with a louvered roof, and a rectangular-style outdoor gas fireplace with a natural granite veneer. For the pool patio, we selected quartzite for its interesting appearance and for its ability to stay cooler in full sun than other natural stone products. There were numerous large specimen trees on-site prior to our design. These were transplanted and utilized in the new planting design. Low-voltage LED landscape lighting was added for ambience in the evening.

La Spezia natural thin veneer from the Quarry Mill gives this fireplace a classic feel. La Spezia stone’s light shades of gray add an Old World feeling to your new stone project. The rounded, rectangular shapes work well for large and small projects like whole-house siding, accent walls, and chimneys. The random textures of this natural stone veneer make it a great choice for any home. La Spezia stone will go well with rustic and contemporary decors and various accessories like appliances or antiques.

This exterior fireplace showcases Mayfair natural thin stone veneer from the Quarry Mill. Mayfair natural stone veneer contains two general colors of stones; white and tan toned stones and a mosaic of browns, grays, and tans. These two stone colors contrast each other to create a unique look and pattern. The regular, rectangular shapes and squared edges of this stone fit together tightly, making it a great choice of projects like kitchen backsplashes, tub and shower surrounds, accent walls, and many exterior projects. The earthy tones of Mayfair stones will complement rustic and contemporary homes and add depth to your space.
