In perfect balance
A chic new pool house makes a sophisticated splash in Old Greenwich
“It was a great experience seeing this fully formed design concept turn into reality,” says Adam Sherer, SBP Homes project manager.
“We still marvel at what a welcoming space they [design team and homeowner] envisioned and created as both a work of art, as well as a place you want to have a pool party—it’s impressive how the architects and designer threaded that needle of achieving both.”
Concludes Sherer: “Phil and Eliane knocked it out of the park with the concept and created an incredible structure. In a word, I would say our favorite element of this pool house is its ‘balance.’ There is an incredible balance, albeit asymmetrical, to the proportions of the structure, the ‘three gables.’ The rooms are perfectly balanced in their scale and size; there is a perfect balance of flow from inside and outside spaces; and there is a balance between the structure being a self-standing ‘guest house’ as much as it is a ‘pool house.’ It has the perfect balance that hopefully the clients and their guests will love and appreciate for years to come!”
