Morgantown Poolside Patio
Rustic Garden, Philadelphia
This backyard paradise began with a muddy site, with all the grading sloping directly to the proposed poolside patio. The design for this outdoor living area would need to incorporate many challenges:
* The grading issues would be corrected with retaining walls, which would create a warm yet expansive area and provide additional seating.
* The pillars would require careful notching to insert the hardware for the pool gate.
* The patio would need to incorporate stormwater storage underneath.
* The edge of the poolside patio would require stabilization to prevent future settlement adjacent to the concrete pool deck.
