Fire · 01

Backyard Pit

Welded Steel · Amber Glass

The back lawn fire pit runs long and low — welded 1/4-inch steel, filled with amber fire glass, LED-lit underneath so the base appears to hover. Set into the mulch bed between the bermuda lawn and the planting zone.

Fire · 02

Pool Pit

Welded Steel · Aqua Glass

The pool-side fire pit is square and close to the water — aqua fire glass reads against the pool surface, the steel floating on its recessed base at the edge of the teak deck. Two fires, two characters, one yard.

After Dark · 01

Night Mode

Full Yard · Fire + Water

After dark the pavers disappear into the turf joints, the fire pits glow in the background, and the pool reflects everything. This is the yard the client hired us to build — the one that makes you stay outside.
