Design Brief
A Venice backyard with a pool, spa and sun shelf — turf surround, clean coping and a compact footprint that swims bigger than it looks.
Site Obstacles & Engineering
A tight Venice lot — the pool, spa and lawn all had to share a small rectangle.
Key Decisions
We kept the pool simple and let the turf run right to the coping, so the yard feels like one soft surface instead of chopped-up zones.
Final Outcome
The completed space includes sun shelf for lounging in the water; spa tucked at the pool's edge; turf surround for bare feet.
