Backyard Pool Addition Before You Build | Design Walkthrough

Written By Frank Bua

Could this backyard become the ultimate outdoor living space?

In this concept walkthrough, we take an existing home and explore how a pool, expanded outdoor living areas, and a redesigned family entry transform the way the home functions.

You'll see:

The existing home and site

The proposed pool and patio layout

A redesigned lower level for entertaining

A new mudroom, laundry, and family entry

The exterior transformation from concept to vision

This is the visual stage of the design process—where ideas are tested, refined, and developed before construction begins.

What would be your first priority: the pool, the outdoor living space, or the new family entry?
