Mediterranean on the Front Range

Perched on top of a steep hillside, this Mediterranean outdoor room is the perfect destination for adult entertainment and kid paradise.  Rustic pavers throughout the space allows the kids to drift between the indoor game room and pool safely. Adults can keep a close eye on the children and enjoy the view of the front range underneath the cozy gazebo. Near the pool, a staircase leads guests to a tranquil area of the landscape where they relax and admire the rustic retaining wall filled with Colorado native plantings.

The homeowner's goal was to create a space that their kids could hang out with their friends, so they could continue to interact with their children as they grow older and without gathering in a public space such as a park or community pool. One design requirement the homeowner requested was to incorporate fire and water. This landscape includes a diverse selection of recreational attractions ranging from a sport court, artificial turf area, pool, spa, outdoor barbeque kitchen and rustic cabana for adults to lounge. The use of high-end materials, large trees, and a Mediterranean inspired landscape design that had the illusion of a vanishing edge pool without the added cost of installing one.
