Our major consideration for the design of this tiny backyard was maximizing space.

  A modern classic rectangular pool with oversize spa creates an illusion to an enlarged expanse in a tight area. The eggshell color of travertine paver decks provides an artful contrast with the azure blue pool and glass tile accents. This compact resort style design includes a bank of chaise lounge chairs and an opposing water feature wall with submerged seating bench.
