Design Brief
A tiered composite deck in Palos Verdes with a sunken spa under a cedar pergola, LED riser lighting, an outdoor kitchen and panoramic coastal views.
Site Obstacles & Engineering
The spa needed to sit flush in the deck without trapping access to equipment or making the steps unsafe at night.
Key Decisions
The deck was framed with removable access around the spa shell, and continuous LED riser lighting makes the tiers legible after dark without floodlighting the view.
Final Outcome
The completed space includes spa sunk flush into the deck; under-step LED glow on every riser; kitchen and pergola sharing one covered zone; coastal view framed from the upper tier.
