Naturalistic Pool and Patio Design
Project Location:
Falls Church, Va.
Awards:
Winner of the 2017 Potomac ASLA Merit Award for Built Work
Project Description:
A naturalistic pool and patio design were the major landscape feature that were retained during this extensive property renovation. They are visually connected to the residence and now serve as a gathering place for wildlife in this near-suburb of Washington DC.
Planned landscape types include a kitchen garden, cutting garden, meadow, wetland edge, and forest. Since installation, homeowners have seen Great Blue Herons, a Wood Duck family, foxes, and countless insect pollinators.
