Is there anything quite like taking a nighttime dip in your backyard pool? Whether it’s floating around under the stars or having friends over for an after-party hangout, there’s something magical about being immersed in the illuminated aqua blue under the dark night sky. 

In the realm of outdoor living space design, the area surrounding your pool holds the promise of a personal paradise. And, with the right approach and luxury landscaping strategy, a hidden oasis of relaxation and enjoyment can be experienced the moment you step foot outside in your backyard.

You’re soaking in the sunshine, lying back on your trusted pink flamingo floatie amidst the clear, baby-blue water beneath you. Life doesn’t get much better than building your own luxury pool, right?  But to preserve that pristine condition of your brand-new vinyl or concrete pool, it pays to keep an eye out for potential problems that, if left untreated, could wind up costing you big time in the long run. 

We often think of our garden landscaping from a sheer visual perspective, planting stunning flowers, vibrant shrubbery, or exotic arrangements that provide scenic surroundings for our outdoor living spaces. But perhaps even more often, we tend to overlook how functionality, history, and sustainability can play an integral role in our softscaping arrangements while still maintaining a sense of integrity and beauty in our landscaping.
