Integrating a patio with a pool for our April Project of the Month.
In Texas, shade in the backyard is mandatory. To enjoy their outdoor space, these homeowners came to us for an escape from the sun and updates to their existing pool. They needed something more permanent than a cumbersome umbrella they had to replace yearly.
So, we set out to design a space focused on comfort, a total transformation built for unwinding, cooking, and dining. We’ll walk you through the updates we made to create the new 550 SF patio.
Let’s start with the pool. We completely updated the decking and removed the pea gravel.
Before
Integrating the Pool and Patio
Outdoor-rated porcelain Keystone Tile extends throughout the entire space, bringing the pool and patio together.
The Vaulted Ceilings
The vaulted ceiling is a pre-stained tongue and groove chosen to complement the existing siding on the house.
Bromic Heaters for Usage Year-round.
Sleek, understated Bromic heaters were added to ensure the space could be used year-round, even during our coldest Texas winters.
Adding the Full Outdoor Kitchen for the Ultimate Dining Experience
The outdoor kitchen has a triple burner Le Griddle, doors, and drawers from Cunningham Living.
The Aspen White granite countertop from Daltile was extended to create additional seating behind the bar.
Now, with all the comforts of home, the patio is now the family’s favorite room of the home.
