Irvine, CA

The client wants a Zen-inspired backyard with a spa to enhance their outdoor living space. The rear perimeter wall is angled relative to the house, creating an asymmetrical alignment that affects the visual perspective of the space. A large, stunning water feature wall is used to address this, with trickling water creating a tranquil, Zen-like effect. Floating steps connect to the infinity-edge spa, complemented by a waterfall effect beside it. A water-surrounded sunken seating area with a fire pit becomes the perfect place to unwind. The rich, dark color palette adds to the Zen-inspired haven, with atmospheric shades that enhance relaxation and peace.
