Joan’s backyard is transformed into an engaging and appealing space through the use of variety of plants, surface materials and furniture. As desired, the space is designed to hold activities such as swimming, dining, and lounging by the fire pit. These areas are spread out in the backyard and are connected by the 2-inch square concrete pavers on a white marble stone (dolomite). Curvaceous forms are also constructed by the existing wood fencing to contrast the strong rectangular structure of the path and other areas including pool, lounge, and the dining area.
