Render vs Reality: This Is How We Make A Family-Friendly Yard Luxurious, Too

Imagine if you knew exactly what your new yard was going to look like – before construction even started. 

 

That’s what our clients get to experience. 

 

Because our process is completely virtual. 

 

You get to see things like…. 

 

Where the sun hits on summer afternoons—so you know where to add shade and shelter in your outdoor space.  

 

What the sunset will look like from your new sunken seating area—so you know you’re maximizing the outdoor space you have, especially the view. 
 

The view your neighbors will have – looking into your redesigned yard—so you know you’re actually getting the privacy you need. 

 

Keep scrolling to see how a virtual design rendering compares to the final yard.

Family-Friendly Yard

Before

Our clients had an empty lot to start – but had no idea how they could get the yard they wanted. They needed to prioritize safety for their young family, but also wanted their yard to have the luxury high-end look you’d find at a private resort.

The 3D Design

It wasn’t easy, but this design is proof that you do not need to sacrifice incredible design or leave out luxe details to end up with a yard that’s family-friendly and focused on safety.

The Design Renders

The realistic 3D design renders gave our clients a preview ofd what their new yard would look like. It’s the best possible way to do exterior design, becuase you know exactly what to expect, before construction even starts.

After

The final yard has a standard rectangle pool with an automatic pool cover, so our clients’ family can enjoy the space without worrying about safety. But, that doens’t mean it looks standard. The rest of the yard that adds the ‘wow factor’ our clients were also looking for and makes them feel like they’re on vacation every time they go outside.

The Rectangle Pool With Automatic Pool Cover 

Can you believe this is a standard rectangle pool? In order to use an automatic pool cover, we needed to add a standard pool. But, this looks anything but standard. We disguised the space with layers, levels, and lighting so it looks like a custom pool. There are so many interesting design details that elevate the pool, it ends up being one of the most luxurious areas in this yard.

The Acrylic-Sided Spa

An oversized spa makes a statement on it’s own. But, adding a see-through panel to one end instantly makes it even more elegant. And adding a fire feature to the spa as well?  Gives it that indescribably WOW factor you want for your yard. 

 

And that’s exactly what we did with this spa. It’s nestled behind the pool, so you have the feeling of having privacy – and the option to be part of all the action in the rest of the yard. It’s a cozy space with hanging swings on one end, and the functionality you need for an oversized spa many people can enjoy.

The Sunken Seating Area

We gave our clients and their young family the perfect space for cozy summer nights around the fire – with a sunken seating area. It’s nestled in the space on one end of the pool and is perfect for making so many memories as a family.

The Baja Shelf

Adding seating inside the pool is the ultimate way to make any outdoor space more relaxing. It’s perfect for our clients to sit and watch their kids splashing around in the pool. Or, to unwind on the weekend.
