EVERY OUTDOOR OPTION
(Left) Knapp used the same quartzite paving stones around the
pool deck, and updated the pre-existing pool and its environs.
The shade structure at left is built of cedar, with a custom-made
pergola and tarp, and outdoor curtains that slide on an internal bar
as a shower curtain would for privacy. The pool’s slide and basket-
ball net are fun for the kids, and everyone can enjoy the hot tub.
(Top) Glass tiles line the hot tub fascia. (Middle) Formerly, a deck
extended from the back of the home; now a two-tiered addition
of about 1,000 square feet faces the pool. The upper terrace’s
surface floats on a pedestal 9 inches above the floor for draining.
In this view, which can be seen by stepping out of the kitchen’s
sliding doors and looking right, the terrace wraps around the home
in an L shape. (Above) To the left of the entrance to the kitchen,
the fully functioning outdoor kitchen has a refrigerator, sink,
barbecue and ample seating and storage. The lower level houses
a bathroom with a full shower, TV and kitchenette.
