Techo-BlocPerfect paving slab for modern poolsides and backyard design, Blu Grande Smooth is a large concrete patio stone available in multiple colors. Its smooth texture is sleek to the eye but rougher to the touch which avoids it from getting slippery when wet.

Ryan Hughes Design“Reflections” was the perfect name for this massive outdoor project as the area includes plenty of water features, miles of glass tiles, signature contemporary lighting, and custom elements that reflect not only the surroundings but the vibe requested by the homeowner.
CÔTÉLe jardin déjà existant a été remanié dans son ensemble, par Chrystel Laporte, de l’agence un Jour d’Avril. Elle a ainsi recomposé l’espace, en lui donnant un véritable ‘air de Grèce’. Plusieurs lieux de vies sont créés : une pergola bioclimatique blanche, offre un espace de détente ombragé à proximité de la maison, accompagné au sol par un opus incertum, donnant beaucoup de caractère à l’espace. Le végétal y est minimaliste mais graphique : deux poteries en terre blanche et émail bleu Céladon de chez Ravel mettent en valeur des cactées apportant de la verticalité à l’espace, et une touche de couleur subtile.
La partie basse de la maison est composée de deux espaces distincts : l’espace piscine et la partie jardin. Pour y accéder, un escalier accompagné de jardinières maçonnées permet d’amorcer la présence plus marquée, du végétal. Ce dernier est principalement exotique. Le long des grands murs en chaux blanches, une banquette et un Dbed sur mesure avec des coussins sur mesure ont été conçues pour offrir des espaces de détentes aux propriétaires. Petit plus, les jardinières qui accompagnaient l’escalier, deviennent de ce côté une tête de lit pour le Dbed et permettent de casser le volume de cet espace avec des végétaux retombants ou aux formes parfois étonnantes.
Le long de la piscine, une grande jardinière sur mesure est imaginée et végétalisée avec une palette reprenant les codes des végétaux déjà implantés précédemment : bananier, oiseaux du paradis, coussins de belle-mère, agaves, etc. Autant de plantes résistantes à la sécheresse, et mise en valeur par l’installation de galets de marbres blancs. Un espace cuisine d’été, sous la terrasse, avec à son mur une frise colorée de zelliges, met subtilement en valeur le travertin au sol, et conduit progressivement en direction du jardin.
Ce dernier contraste avec le reste de l’aménagement : une pelouse délimitée par des haies mixtes (arbustes et plantes exotiques : cycas, phormium, citronnier, bananier, etc.), cachent du vis-à-vis, sans perdrent la vue mer.
Les végétaux existants sont conservés, et les aménagements viennent les mettre en valeur, comme le boulodrome crée, qui intègre dans ses limités en traverse bois, un bel arbre qui devient central.
Un travail sur l’éclairage a été réalisé, afin de valoriser cet extérieur de jour comme de nuit.

Corinthian Fine HomesThese homeowners loved their outdoor space, complete with a pool and deck, but wanted to better utilize the space for entertaining with the full kitchen experience and amenities. This update was designed keeping the Tuscan architecture of their home in mind. We built a cabana with an Italian design, complete with a kegerator, icemaker, fridge, grill with custom hood and tile backsplash and full overlay custom cabinetry. A sink for meal prep and clean up enhanced the full kitchen function. A cathedral ceiling with stained bead board and ceiling fans make this space comfortable. Additionally, we built a screened in porch with stained bead board ceiling, ceiling fans, and custom trim including custom columns tying the exterior architecture to the interior. Limestone columns with brick pedestals, limestone pavers and a screened in porch with pergola and a pool bath finish the experience, with a new exterior space that is not only reminiscent of the original home but allows for modern amenities for this family to enjoy for years to come.
