Pool House

Pool House With Sliding Barn Door

Our clients have asked us to design accessory buildings which range from potting sheds to elaborate family sports centers.  No two are exactly alike in their form or function.  The most frequently requested accessory building is a pool house.  Within that category, we have designed pool houses that could become small full-time homes and others that are only meant to provide shade.  Another favorite accessory building is a garage/guesthouse. Whatever the use, accessory buildings are fun to design and a pleasure to use.

    All these beautiful and luxurious accessory buildings but the gardener in me says “oooh, a potting shed!”
