A free-form pool, stone edges, and a fire pit shape this Mesilla backyard.

Project story

The design.

The pool curves around a stone-lined patio, with planting close to the water. The fire pit gives the yard a second gathering point after sunset.

Natural stone follows the free-form pool, with planting close to the edge. A fire pit and evening lighting make the adjoining patio usable after dark.
