Design Brief
A view-lot estate yard in Baldwin Hills with a waterfall pool, in-water loungers, a raised spa, a turf putting green, illuminated travertine stairs and a luxury outdoor kitchen.
Site Obstacles & Engineering
The property steps down across several elevations, so the pool, lawn and lounge levels all had to be tied together safely and without a wall of hardware.
Key Decisions
Travertine stairs with concealed riser lighting connect each level, and the raised spa and waterfall wall double as retaining elements so the grade change reads as design rather than engineering.
Final Outcome
The completed space includes waterfall wall as the pool focal point; in-water loungers on the sun shelf; lED riser lighting on the travertine staircase; putting green integrated into the turf lawn.
