What you don’t see is the sheer effort it took to bring this vision to life. The block was steep, the ground unyielding — solid rock from edge to edge — and access was barely workable. With no room for machinery, excavation became a manual feat: jackhammers in hand, every inch carved out with determination. Spoil was hauled out, one wheelbarrow at a time, through the neighbour’s yard. Instead of forcing the site to bend to the build, the design was elevated — literally — with the pool raised to its final level, maintaining the original vision while sidestepping delays and costly, unnecessary excavation.
The result is a space that not only works but invites you to linger. A hidden Remco pool cover, strong enough to walk on, is tucked beneath the deck. In-floor cleaning, heating and full smart automation make the pool effortless to maintain. Whether you’re lighting the garden remotely or adjusting the temperature before a morning swim, everything can be controlled from a phone or smart device.
