Atmospheric family garden with natural pool

Bathing paradise in natural surroundings

The owner of the detached house wanted a pool for the whole family as well as a clearly laid out garden that catered for all needs. The result is an atmospheric family garden with a natural pool at the centre of the garden oasis. The naturally purified pool provides bathing fun for the whole family and attracts everyone’s attention with its blue colour. The wooden pool surround frames the pool and gives the garden a natural flair. At one end of the pool, a cosy seating area with decorative garden furniture invites you to linger and enjoy. From here, the view sweeps over the entire garden and the surrounding landscape, which is embedded in a beautiful mountain landscape. A simple and modern pergola provides pleasant shade in this cosy spot and casts an exciting interplay of light and shade on the ground. The roof of the pergola can be opened or closed as required.

The varied planting of flowering shrubs and evergreen trees and bushes further emphasises the natural yet open garden design. Flowers in different colours set individual accents and provide subtle eye-catchers throughout the bathing season. The plants were only planted this year, which is why the flowers and perennials still need some time to frame the garden in all its splendour. After a year, the purple lavender in particular will bloom in beautiful colours around the pool, gently framing the garden. The screen of plants around the barbecue area will also grow thicker from year to year, concealing the house behind the garden.

Family garden for all needs

The large lawn area next to the pool gives the family garden space to play. The practical barbecue area is cleverly positioned at the other end of the lawn. Natural stones, which are also suitable for seating, form a circle and frame the sunken area in a natural way. A path leads across the lawn to the dining area by the house via irregularly arranged stepping stones of different sizes. The decorative stepping stones also break up the gravelled area in front of the house and point the way to the natural pool or the spacious lawn area. The gravelled area in front of the house forms a calm and flowing transition to the rest of the garden, while the existing evergreen shrubs in the solitary container break up the structure and provide softness. The trampoline is a highlight for the children and was newly sunk into the ground so that the view remains unobstructed and the play equipment becomes one surface with the ground.
