Outdoor Living
"al Fresco"
Dinning under the stars – this space is nestled just off the kitchen to the main house. In creating it we wanted a space that would work well for group entertaining was well as a quite dinner for two.
Adding movable awnings above allowed us to control the sun and shade as well being able to open them fully at night to see the stars.
We lit the space with strings of “Italian Wedding Lights” which give a lovely low light level.
During holidays our clients replace the clear bulbs with colored bulbs to also set the mood.
The custom made teak table seats 14 and is able to be dressed up or down depending on the event. We used teak and iron chairs often found in parks throughout Tuscany and Paris.
Warm earth tone colors of green’s, brown’s, gold’s and orange were selected to highlight the main focal point of the pool spa walls.
It truly is an enchanting space.
