The brief

The owners asked for a dream yard with restraint: minimal, earthy and warm, in keeping with the Japandi interior of the house, and not Mediterranean.

The existing pool stays, along with the waterfalls they love the sound of. Around it the yard gains a hot tub, an outdoor shower and more green, and the paving is simplified so the whole space reads as one.

The pool keeps its shape; everything around it is new.
