Design

  • Ryan Hughes Design/Build specializes in Exceptional Outdoor Living Spaces, Award Winning Swimming Pools, Innovative Fire and Water Features and Signature Landscapes.

    Design Philosophy

    Our design philosophy is about “Artistry of Space”. Combining classic design principles of proportion and balance with expert space planning. We strive to make each outdoor living space as functional as they are beautiful.

    Focusing on the needs of our client, we design around their unique lifestyle and taste to create a space that is inviting, comfortable, safe, and engages the senses. The swimming pool which is usually the focal point, is just one component of the backyard. It’s the landscape, the lighting and fire/waterfeatures that define the space and evoke emotion. Our design approach incorporates these features into one exciting and relaxing outdoor environment using the harmony of elements.

    From resort style pools to dynamic outdoor kitchens. From serene and relaxing seating areas, to casual fire pits. Our outdoor living designs are comprised of individual destinations, each with their own specific purpose. Creating spaces that are aesthetically pleasing, but more importantly, fit your lifestyle.

    From contemporary to old world, from ultra modern infinity pools to neoclassical estates. Our design expertise spans all architectural styles and encompasses all elements of luxury outdoor living. All designs incorporate the latest in modern technology as well as some of the worlds most unique materials, colors and textures.

    Design Process

    Our design process begins with an initial consultation to understand and review your style and vision for your outdoor living space. We also work with you to understand how you plan to use the space and the desired feel you would like to achieve. Once these factors are identified, we examine your homes existing architecture to ensure continuity and flow to your new outdoor living space. Taking into consideration locations of views, site conditions and accessibility, we design your outdoor living space to flow from inside your home out.

    Upon completion of the consultation, our design team and graphic artists will translate the vision into conceptual drawings and renderings. A visual presentation will also be prepared to convey the look and feel of the proposed project.

    Under the design process, materials will be recommended which may include: pavers, travertine, glass tile, stone veneer, precast concrete, landscape and lighting. The final design drawings will provide an accurate representation of your new outdoor living space.

    Ryan Hughes Design Services are available locally, nationally and internationally.
