"We recently worked with Encore Builders on a stunning backyard project that included a new rectangular pool, a sleek fire pit, and a custom barbecue area. The entire design feels like something straight out of a luxury boutique hotel. From the initial 3D design to the final touches, Encore Builders crafted an elegant and functional space that we couldnâ t be happier with. From the start, we envisioned a chic, modern look for our outdoor space, and Encore Builders nailed it with the clean, sophisticated design. Brandon and oz immediately understood my vision and I could tell they were strand up guys. I shopped around but it was a no brainer the second I met them. We instantly hit it off and I could tell they were knowledgeable. I saw their other jobs and was impressed right away. I showed them some inspo pics of what I wanted. Eventually, both the pool and fire pit were designed with sharp, rectangular shapes that give the space a sleek, upscale vibe. The straight lines of the pool and fire pit complement each other beautifully, creating a sense of balance and cohesion that ties the entire backyard together. The choice of materials and the high-end finishes truly make it feel like weâ re stepping into a private boutique resort every time we go outside. Every part of this project was carefully crafted- even the firepit. Positioned near the pool, it mirrors the chic simplicity of the poolâ s design, creating a sense of harmony across the space. The sleek, linear fire pit is made with modern stone materials that give it a luxurious feel while remaining durable and weather-resistant. The upscale design of the fire pit, with its clean lines and contemporary look, makes it the perfect centerpiece for evening gatherings. The 3D Design Process: A Vision Realized Encore Buildersâ 3D design process was a crucial part of the project. Being able to visualize how the pool, fire pit, and seating area would look together in a cohesive design allowed us to make informed decisions. It was during this phase that we finalized the size and placement of the rectangular fire pit in relation to the pool, ensuring the two elements worked together harmoniously. Seeing the 3D model helped us feel confident in our choices, especially with the bench design, where we could visualize how the warm wood would complement the sleek stone materials. The final result is exactly what we saw in the 3D design â and even more beautiful in person In addition to the pool and fire pit, Encore Builders created a custom barbecue area that matches the chic aesthetic of the rest of the space. The built-in grill, spacious countertops, and storage make it not only a stylish feature but also incredibly functional for hosting gatherings. As a couple that loves to host this was crucial For us! Encore Builders turned our backyard into a chic, upscale retreat that rivals the look and feel of a boutique hotel. If youâ re looking for a team that can deliver a modern, luxurious outdoor living space with precision and style, Encore Builders is the way to go. We are absolutely in love with the final result and look forward to enjoying our backyard for years to come! Oz and Brandon and the guys at Encore are truly unbeatable!"
