We collaborated
with a high-profile design team in creating the outdoor
living spaces for this English Georgian style home, designed
by renowned architect Horace Trumbauer, circa 1910. Our
firm took the lead on all new exterior spaces and garden
renovations.
The central design feature was the addition of an original
glass mosaic tile pool and a newly constructed pool house,
all designed to compliment the original architectural
style of the house.
The pool gardens feature long visual vistas that begin
with the renovated upper terrace, go through the pool
house and pool area, and end in a “secret” garden
that is complete with formal perennial plantings, an antique
fountain, and areas that feature sculpture from the owner’s
extensive art collection.
