infinity & beyond

“A nifty feature of the pool is the infinity edge, which gives that waterfall look and also doubles as the pool barrier,” says homeowner Steve. To ensure views aren’t obscured, frameless glass fences visually connect the outdoor dining and living areas to the pool (left). In low-set garden beds, purple-flowering woodland sage is interspersed with Japanese cheesewood, while a creeping fig will eventually shroud the chimney wall. For a wide range of poolside plants, try Floriana.
