Project 6
A coastal residential precedent showing an elevated pool terrace extending toward marshland, useful for indoor-outdoor waterfront studies.
- What we like about this project
- The infinity edge of the pool drops directly over a secondary lower water trough or garden bed.

- Geometry
- Linear elevated pool and sun deck step out from the main building volume toward the water edge, bounded by vertical structural posts and glass railings.
- Facade system
- Large-format multi-pane glass facade adjacent to the porch.
- Structural guess
- Concrete cantilever slab or elevated steel framing supporting the pool and deck structure.
- Spatial scale
- Residential scale, viewed from an upper level looking down at a ground-level or elevated terrace.
- Lighting
- Bright late afternoon sunlight casting long, angled shadows and highlighting the turquoise water.
- Atmosphere
- Warm, tranquil coastal ambiance with bright sunlight reflecting off water and white stone.
- Environmental context
- Coastal waterfront setting with tall marsh grasses, wooden docks, and calm water visible in the background.
- Spatial experience
- Looking down from an upper floor, the foreground porch frames an outward progression across the sun deck and infinity pool toward open marsh and water.
- Composition rhythm
- Vertical dark structural columns punctuate the bright horizontal planes of the deck and pool edge.
