A Backyard Built for Relaxation, Fun, and Style

For this post, we thought it might be fun revisit a project of ours.

At Backyard Concepts, we believe a pool should be more than just a place to swim—it should be the centerpiece of your backyard lifestyle. This project showcases just that, blending modern design with thoughtful features that make it perfect for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment.

The centerpiece is a sleek rectangular pool, designed with clean lines to complement the home’s modern farmhouse architecture. A tanning ledge offers space for lounging in the sun, while the attached raised spa with a spillover feature creates the perfect spot to relax after a swim.

For fun and family time, the pool is outfitted with a volleyball net, turning the backyard into a built-in game zone for kids and adults alike. The space also features elevation changes accented by stacked stone retaining walls, adding dimension and character while seamlessly tying the pool deck to the surrounding landscape.

To elevate the design even further, the pool is framed with copper fire and water bowls at the corners. These striking features bring a dramatic mix of elements—flickering flames and flowing water—that transform the pool into a showpiece, especially after sunset.

Around the pool, there’s plenty of deck space for outdoor seating, entertaining, and even raised garden beds to bring a natural touch to the design. Together, these elements create a backyard that feels as inviting as it is functional.

Why we love this project: it checks all the boxes—stylish design, built-in recreation, and spaces to relax and recharge. Whether the homeowners are enjoying a friendly volleyball match, soaking in the spa, or hosting friends around the pool, this backyard is built for memories.
