Brief: The client wanted something extraordinary for their family and they wanted laughter to fill every corner of their backyard.

Construction: The excavation was a huge job requiring up to 6m deep site cut which had to be carefully cut in layers to avoid any major landslide. This allowed for a tiered design and features at almost every level of this backyard wonderland. An enormous retaining wall was required which was built as part of the pool design and covered later in made rock. The site cut was so large that we were even able to design the pool with a long slide. The level of expert construction on this project was paramount given the size of the pool and the enormity of the site.

• We had to carefully design sub-terrains with the landscaping to catch overflow of water and all of this was part of our design and construction.
• The pool structure was built with an integrated alfresco area, swim up bar, overflow tank and a mega 4 to 5m high retaining wall.
• The cascading rock waterfall is truly magnificent as it lights up at night and roars movement and water vibration through the entire living area. The lighting captures the moving water and bounces off the entire body of water.
  
  

Result: The entire backyard is a breathing wonderland where the water has become an identity of the property.
