View of Main House, Pool at Night

When the sun goes down, this backyard somehow becomes even more beautiful. Landscape lights along the edge of the main house cast a warm glow across the patio, while LEDs in the pool make the water sparkle.

Windows Offer Views of Outdoor Space

Walls of windows not only fill the great room with natural light, but also provide clear views of the entire backyard. In turn, the owners can enjoy their outdoor space no matter what the weather's like.

Sitting Area Infused With Pink

To differentiate between the two spaces, designer Bea Pila outfitted each with its own color palette. Thus, the sitting area features a crisp white, contemporary sofa with pink pillows -- and a pink area rug for good measure.

Great Room Includes Chic Dining Space

Double doors lead into the great room, where a sitting area and dining space give the owners plenty of room to entertain. Wood cabinets serve as a backdrop for the dining set and keep extra glasses on hand, while an Acrylic table and black-and-white area rug make a chic statement.

Wood Beams, Stone Accents Bring Outdoors In

Where wood beams and a stone accent wall bring the outdoors inside, clerestory windows fill this contemporary sitting area with light. The result is a space that feels natural yet sophisticated.
