The Limestone Manor

Project Story

A 1930s Georgian estate had been waiting eighty years for a pool that knew how to behave. We drew a single quiet rectangle along the original garden axis, hand-set the coping from a matched limestone block, and let the boxwood do the rest of the work.

Design Challenge

Insert a pool into a 1930s Georgian property without disturbing the formal axial garden the home was designed around.

Lifestyle Outcome

A pool that reads as if it was drawn at the same time as the house — a quiet rectangle along the original garden axis.

Unique Feature

Every coping stone was sourced from a single Indiana quarry block to keep the veining continuous around all four sides.
