In this breathtaking backyard landscape design in San Diego, CA, we wanted to fix the client’s’ space problem while illuminating the relaxing lifestyle of San Diego.

These Bay Park residents wanted to eliminate the previous deck because it split between the yard and made their space feel small. We designed the new deck to have more usable space and increase accessibility from the home. By tripling the size of the deck space and adding two different low maintenance swimming features, we not only added space, we added luxury.

The design started by raising up and installing a custom prefabricated spa. Then, we added the composite decking to decrease maintenance and add longevity. With the swim spa raised and deck built around it, the space now has a distinct custom look, while using landscaping for privacy.

Now, our residents have a gorgeous place to get fit from the comfort of their home spa with room for the whole family to relax and enjoy during outside barbecues.

With the deck now in place, we constructed a wooden framework to weave fabric through and shade the entire deck. These blue and green top shade covers were installed with retractable frames to allow the family to take full advantage of the San Diego weather.

Next, we added a metal railing to leave the space feeling open and allow the parents to enjoy the deck while kids play on the lawn. Plants were strategically selected and placed around the deck to add privacy from neighbors. To polish it all off, accent lights were placed around the space to illuminate the feature elements and plants.
