About this Project
This comprehensive landscaping project seamlessly integrates two distinct areas within the existing vineyard landscape: a recreational putting green and a luxurious pool area.
The entrance to the putting green is framed by vertically installed wooden sleepers at varying heights, echoing the vineyard rows. Native grasses soften the edges and blend the green with the surrounding natural environment. Subtle exterior lighting illuminates the area for evening play without disrupting the vineyard’s ambiance.
The second focal point of the project is a large in-ground pool accompanied by a smaller wading pool. The pool and surrounding patio are finished with porcelain tiles, creating a clean, modern aesthetic. A spacious Kwila deck extends the pool area, offering ample space for lounging and entertaining, while seamlessly connecting to the main house, adjacent games room and pool house.
Artificial turf borders the pool, providing a low-maintenance, evergreen contrast to the porcelain tiles. Glass fencing encloses the pool area for safety while preserving views of the landscape and main house.
This project seamlessly blends functionality and beauty, incorporating new elements into the existing landscape while using durable materials to create a lasting, inviting space for both recreation and relaxation.
