Amelia Island Coastal Contemporary Backyard
Contemporary Pool, Jacksonville
The steeply sloped back yard allowed us to make a drastic impact by building an 8' tall retaining wall to support the pool and patio, creating a dog-friendly play space in the lower yard. The heated pool features an inset spa for year-round relaxation. An adjacent sunken patio is anchored by a linear fire pit, with an artificial turf floor to visually soften the space. Tiered patios define the rooms underneath the new second story deck, while a shed provides both storage and privacy from the neighbors. Tucked underneath the staircase is a shower, complete with a surfboard to add a fun, beach element to the coastal style space. Lush landscaping and mindfully placed accent lighting finish off the space, to provide a comfortable refuge from everyday life.
