Once dominated by water-intensive lawn, this challenging hillside site was reimagined by Boxleaf to be a vibrant destination, shaping a new pool house, pool, and outdoor living environment around views of Mt. Tamalpais. Designed for gathering, the new pool house is the heart of the property, hosting family celebrations, al fresco parties, and slow weekends. Rugged materials, such as board-formed concrete and exposed steel I-beams, blend with crisp wood detailing in sustainably harvested, fire-resistant Thermory. The pool appears to float above a hillside planted with low-water ornamental grasses and perennials, punctuated by terraced vegetable gardens and orchards.
