THE PROJECT
Folsom Street Modern Pool Retreat — Pool, Fire Feature and Outdoor Kitchen in Surprise
This backyard in Surprise was designed and built as one complete outdoor living space. A long rectangular pool has a sun shelf for in-water lounging, in-floor cleaning and a gas heater. A raised feature wall carries a linear fire feature and a sheer waterfall. Large-format pavers are broken up by strips of artificial turf, and a built-in BBQ island and a row of ficus columns finish the yard.
