A garden with pool and fountain

Between foresight and privacy: time just runs a little slower here. Surrounded by a breathtaking mountain backdrop is this remodeled garden with pool and fountain.

Surrounded by impressive mountains lies this stunning garden. The conversion of the home was implemented together with the garden redesign, so that in the end a harmonious overall concept was created like no other. The already existing house was supplemented with an annex to the left and another separate living area in the garden. The garden is at the center of the living spaces. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the view into the garden is undisturbed. A unique connection between indoors and outdoors provides connectedness between nature and architecture.

Before - After: Change of the garden

A modern garden design in connection with nature

The design, the chosen planting and the covered seating area on the opposite side of the house provide privacy and a secure atmosphere. The garden almost seems like its own park right outside the front door. With eyes closed, the garden is a true paradise. Far from roads, birds are chirping, a light breeze blows through the hair and over the surface of the pool. A gentle splashing can be heard from the fountain. Opening one's eyes, one's gaze wanders through the garden, where the grasses and trees are slowly set in motion by the swell. Behind the house opens an impressive mountain scenery, which makes the location of this garden very special.

Magic by the water - fountain and pool in the garden

Due to the pool and the fountain, the garden is surrounded by water. The sky is reflected on the surface of the pool and the fountain casts an extraordinary play of light on the maple next to it. In addition to the visuals, the element of water provides magical acoustics. With the window open in the house or at the built-in fireplace by the pergola: water as the essence of life gives the garden an unmistakable atmosphere and simply makes time run a little slower.

Garden planting concept

The trees of the garden are deliberately placed as individual eye-catchers. The fine structure of the trunks gives the garden a certain lightness. The grasses provide gentle transitions between different areas. The wind moves wave-like through the sea of grasses, which makes its grand entrance in autumn. The large lawn in the center opens up the garden and ensures that the view of the mountain scenery can be enjoyed undisturbed. The individual planters between the grasses next to the fountain create a dark color contrast and bring another level to the garden. The three containers in front of the pool are also eye-catchers and contribute to the design of the space. They interrupt the straight lines and the large garden area with a certain elegance.
