Creating an Outdoor Retreat
IN RIDGEWOOD, NJ
IN RIDGEWOOD, NJ
Project Description
This remarkable outdoor transformation in Ridgewood, NJ, reimagines the backyard as a cohesive, multi-functional retreat. At the center of the design is a raised Soake Pool, complete with an auto-cover for convenience. Surrounding the pool are distinct zones for dining, lounging, cooking, and gathering, each defined by thoughtful materials and layout. The space’s seamless flow is enhanced by 3’x3’ Bluestone pathway stones, which connect the pool, firepit, BBQ area, and patio in a harmonious design.
This project required careful planning to:
Maximize Cohesion in a Multi-Zone Space
With distinct areas for cooking, dining, lounging, and swimming, the layout needed to feel unified without sacrificing functionality.
Integrate Existing Elements
The client’s smoker was a key feature we preserved, integrating it seamlessly into the BBQ station.
Enhance Flow Between Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
By upgrading the walkway with Bluestone pathway stones, we ensured a natural transition from the kitchen door to the outdoor living areas.
These challenges were overcome by using high-quality materials, strategic zoning, and thoughtful integration, resulting in a backyard that’s both beautiful and highly functional.
