The main objective of this project was to match the pool to the home’s modern ‘rustic’ look. The design of the pool was integral to the outdoor spaces—specifically the stone patio, a meditation garden and the surrounding natural landscape. Auburn Park Landscaping installed a dry creek for the homeowners to help mitigate water runoff and the pool provides additional ambience to these quiet, meditative areas.

"The pool and its waterfall play an important role as part of the meditation garden and vice versa. The natural stone patio becomes a part of the stone wall of the pool and also reflects into the meditation garden. It’s like the Asian “yin and yang” concept of balance and harmony."  —Austin Tao, landscape architect from Auburn Park Landscaping.
