Darien
Case Study
This project creates a clean, modern outdoor living space where the pool, hardscape, and planting all work together as one composition. Straight lines, wide decking, and a restrained material palette keep everything feeling intentional and uncluttered.
A raised stone feature wall anchors the far edge of the pool, adding texture and movement through dual sheer descents that bring sound and visual focus to the water. The layout balances active and relaxed zones—an in-water tanning ledge with loungers sits near the main circulation path, while the elevated entertaining area expands the experience with built-in seating and a full outdoor kitchen/bar. Low, layered landscaping and subtle lighting soften the hard edges and frame views without competing with the architecture.
