Courtyard retreat

2026

Courtyard Retreat transformed a constrained residential courtyard into a private outdoor sanctuary centered around a custom cocktail pool and intimate entertaining spaces. With limited access and a compact footprint, every element was carefully planned alongside the client to maximize functionality, preserve circulation, and create a refined retreat that feels both luxurious and deeply personal.

Key Responsibilities:

• Developed the overall site design, integrating the cocktail pool, outdoor living areas, planting, and circulation into a cohesive courtyard experience.

• Produced realistic 3D visualizations to guide design decisions and help the client confidently refine the project before construction.

• Coordinated design solutions for a challenging site, balancing restricted access, limited construction space, and the client's vision for a secluded, resort-inspired retreat.
