Courtyard Linear
The project
A raised linear pool with a dark-tile water wall and spillover spa, a floating linear fire feature, a modern cabana and stepping pads through the lawn.
A narrow Central Austin lot asked for discipline. The pool is a single raised rectangle with a dark glass-tile face, a spillover spa at one end and a white linear fire feature floating at the other; in-water loungers and a modern cabana with a kitchen sit alongside. Concrete stepping pads cross the turf so the geometry continues all the way to the fence. At night the raised wall glows and the fire line mirrors in the water.
