Description

If you often find yourself faced with space restrictions in your projects, this course will teach you methods for incorporating a big scope of work into a small space. We will discuss how to avoid the pitfall of locating the pool first (potentially eliminating all other uses in the backyard), while still maintaining setbacks and following local regulations. The pool, while extremely important, is still only one element in the long list of what your customers want from their yard. In this class we discuss ways to locate the pool while also retaining the functionality of the outdoor living and explore design solutions for every inch of the backyard.
