Residentail Outdoor Bar
Summer 2024
This project was designed and built all from my own handy work. Important factors were creating a bar that seemlessly integrated itself within the existing pool house. Client conversation revealed the best possible layout and construction for the outdoor entertainment space. Laying stones and pouring concrete brought an undeying reverance for all craftsman.
