POOL HOUSE
 
The house below extensively integrates pools, waterfalls, and fountains into the central areas of the plan. Large landscaped pools surround the living room and dining-sunroom areas.  These pools also are visible through interior windows  from the study, the family room, the play room, and the master bedroom, all of which may be sealed with drawn drapery. A fireplace serves both the living and dining areas. Note that the house is entered from the extreme right where there would be a porch and garage complex, that is not shown.

 

Pools and landscape become important architectural components

 

Water and landscape become important interior features of the home

 

The central living space is as much garden as house
