Thompson Residence

Story

Using a free form design style (3) to connect several buildings on site with walkways (10) allowed me to create small secluded spaces as well as large open areas for entertaining (4.)  


A gunite structure (13) was installed for the pool  which boasts a 75' swimming area and a 12' deep diving area.  There is also a grotto and slide structure (14), water beams that shoot from various locations on the pool deck (15), a large tanner shelf, under water bar stools at a counter top and a beach entry.


A paver inlay was created using red and white clay brick and bluestone pavers to represent the American flag which is a strong symbol for the family business.


In the raised firepit area (7) landscape lighting was installed under the pillar caps (9) and seat walls for both ambiance and safety.


The plantings feature a number of different plants to maximize flower color and interest throughout the seasons.  There are areas left open for future expansion on site and lawn areas were installed to accommodate additional amenities planned for the site.
