Making a Splash: Cincinnati Pool Landscaping
For their spacious lot near Lebanon, Ohio, the owners of this new construction home could picture a luxurious oasis in their backyard. With a comprehensive design by Seiler’s Landscaping, the pool landscaping for their Hensley Custom Building Group home is big and beautiful.
The Big Picture
Overall, the expansive pool deck is lined with travertine to create a seamless outdoor space. Stone stairs lead down the sloping site from the side yard. The home’s screened outdoor living space (on the left in the photo above) looks over the pool landscaping designed for fun and entertainment.
Turning Up the Drama
Dancing flames bring warmth and dramatic flare to the space. A pair of fire vessels flank the raised seating area that sits just above the spa and pool beyond. These vessels feature gas flames with a dramatic waterfall below that helps recirculate water in the pool.
On one end of the outdoor living space, a generous fire pit creates a place for friends to gather. A retaining wall defines the space and shelters it from the wind.
The fire pit, constructed of natural stone and travertine, provides a long view of the entire pool area and the back exterior of the home.
Natural limestone steps lead from the side yard down to the pool area and outdoor living space.
Lighting It Up
The landscape design for this outdoor living space includes a complete lighting plan. LED colored underwater lights give the pool a beautiful glow. The homeowners can choose from a wide range of colors to suit their mood or the occasion. Path lights, spotlights, lights mounted under steps and underwater pool lights work together to make the whole space welcoming after the sun goes down.
