Imagine

Investing in an Airbnb property is more than just offering accommodation—it’s about creating a memorable and inviting experience that appeals to families seeking relaxation and quality time together. The property owners of a picturesque estate in Bridgeville, Delaware faced a significant challenge: how to transform their expansive, underutilized backyard into a family-friendly wellness retreat that would elevate nightly rates and establish their property as a premier destination getaway for families.

The Story Behind the Transformation

To bring the client’s vision to life, the design focused on creating an elegant, calming atmosphere with a palette of Caffè Crema and Caffè Crema. Blu 60mm slabs were selected not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their permeability, which resolved the backyard’s water management challenges. The addition of built-in seating and a custom fire pit enhanced the sense of comfort and gathering, while clean lines and soft tones ensured the overall design was timeless. A canopy with sleek metal posts added a contemporary touch, perfectly blending functionality and style.

Functional Elegance

The project features Blu 60mm permeable slabs extensively across the patio and walkways, creating a seamless and visually striking surface while addressing water drainage issues. A custom fire pit, framed by Raffinato walls in Caffè Crema, acts as a central focal point for gatherings and complements the warm tones of the surrounding hardscape. Industria slabs in Caffè Crema and Caffè Crema were used to create a spacious patio with a diamond pattern, enhancing the backyard’s timeless and cohesive aesthetic. The landscaping, featuring mature trees, ornamental grasses, and hydrangeas, softens the space while providing privacy and enhancing the overall ambiance.
